Hiking the Narrows, Zion National Park

 

Hi! I’m Kelly Coulthard! Here’s my story…

A long, long time ago, a little girl went to camp. There she realized that she was important and it was okay to be herself. She found these role models that changed her life and made a lifelong impact. Her life’s purpose started at camp…and continues because of camp.
