We’re always excited to have Aussies at camp, but we’re especially excited to have Ella at camp this summer. Ella’s parents met co-founders Susie and Steve when they worked together at Camp Dunnabeck and became fast friends. Now we have the second generation at Camp Spring Creek, strengthening the bonds of our camp family.
