Falcon Camp News, For Campers

Congratulations to our Scholarship Winners!

April 1, 2019

Congratulations to Abby McCartney and Julia Shorey, winners of our inaugural 2019 College Scholarship, and recipients of a $1,000 award. We know each of them well (although that is not a requirement), and can attest that they are each hard workers, individual thinkers, and strong women. Most importantly, they appreciate the value of overnight camp, and how it can impact the lives of children. In order to win the scholarship, each applicants had to write an essay about the benefits of outdoor residential programs. Both talked about being able to increase social skills, confidence, and learning respect for others. We appreciate the time and effort all the applicants put in, and once again congratulate Abby and Julia on their efforts.
