HAPPY CAMPERS

Re: “Parks & Recreation” (July/ August). I, too, am part of a group of women who have been camping together in Algonquin Park since 1999. Our full list is about 20 women with a wide range of ages.

We started with a core group and over the years most have brought a friend they thought might enjoy the trip. Some have become part of the core group and some have not come back.

We read the article and were surprised at the similarities of the impact of the whole process. It has spilled over to our everyday lives, and the ladies who are not able to sleep on the ground anymore are still part of our overall network.

It was a joy to read the article, and we have a heartfelt thanks to Leanne Delap for starting us down this path! —Linda Bromby, via email
