On Friday, November 13th, The American Camp Association, New England hosted their 5th Annual Camp Champions Celebration to Honor Grammy-nominated singer/songwriter, Lisa Loeb. Not only is she an accomplished artist, but also a dedicated camp advocate. In 2008, Loeb started The CAMP LISA Foundation with the mission “to make it possible for kids, who wouldn’t normally have the opportunity, go to summer camp. At camp these kids are able to sing songs, play sports, make snacks, make friends, do arts and crafts, all the while learning about community, sharing, empathy, and having fun. The Camp Lisa Foundation aims to enrich the lives of children through the summer camp experience.” The Camp Champions evening celebrated the true spirit of camp, raising funds to help to bring the camp experience to children-in-need through the ACA New England’s Campership Fund.
