Campers, Staff and Alumni Light Lamp of Fortitude

By Ben Woods

“Be brave.” “Be silent.” “Obey.” These are the rays that make up the Lamp of Fortitude, the third lamp of the Law of the Woods. Over the past few weeks, we asked campers, staff and alumni to reflect on these rays and submit their thoughts and creations.
