Revisit Florida at a time when children were much more at home in the
wild. The balmy northeast corner of the state, filled with lakes and
forests primeval, was a camper's paradise. Iconic summer camps like
Blanding, Chowenwaw, Echockotee, Immokalee, Montgomery, Keystone,
Seminole and Weed played vital roles in the development of countless
children. They swapped adventures beneath the stars, a heartening
reminder that even the worst days can make the best stories. Join author

weathered their first dark night and welcomed a brilliant sunrise, just
before all the fun begins!
