🏕️ Elementary Camp is officially underway! 💙

Our campers arrived to an extra-special welcome this year thanks to our wonderful Auburn Lions Club partners, who created these beautiful handmade blankets for camp.

Each one is different, made with care, and given especially for our campers — a cozy piece of Camp Leo they can enjoy while they’re here and cherish long after they head home.

These are the little moments that matter: feeling welcomed, cared for, and knowing there’s a whole community cheering you on.

A heartfelt thank you to the for putting so much time and love into these special gifts. And to our Elementary campers… WELCOME TO CAMP! We’re so happy you’re here! 🦁💙
