Operation Purple at Camp Twin Creeks


We ventured into the far corner of southeastern West Virginia on Tuesday for a full day of presentations for the Operation Purple program at Camp Twin Creeks in Minnehaha Springs. Operation Purple is a program developed by our partner, the National Military Family Association, to provide an opportunity for kids with a mom or dad at war to go to camp.

Throughout the day, we taught the principles of Leave No Trace through various activities including, Watch Your Step, Minimum Impact Match, and How Long Does it Last?, to over 150 kids ranging in ages from 6 to 16. All the young campers were excited to learn about Leave No Trace and were enjoying themselves at camp.

All the best,

Agata and Jason
