For most of us, 2020 was a summer without traditional camp – the special experiences, friendships and lessons learned at camp stay with those who participate throughout their lives. New York Times bestselling author Iris Krasnow reflects with humor and heart on her summer camp experiences that helped shape her.
A nostalgic memoir with a universal message on the importance of long-term friendship for campers and non-campers alike, Camp Girls weaves between the past and present, and the joy of finding your independence as well as your interdependence alongside peers.
Krasnow demonstrates that camp is more than a place or a collection of activities: it’s where we learn what it means to be human and what it feels like to truly belong to a family – not of blood, but of history, loyalty, and tradition.
Forest and Indian Acres will be having a reunion break-out room prior to the author talk. The Camp Reunion will be from 6:15 – 6:50 PM CST. We will give you a zoom link with instructions on how to get to the break-out room that is dedicated just for us!
