I Can't Remember It Because I Never Knew It
Camp Spotlight:
St. Sebastian's Camp at Shrine Mont focuses on sports and athletics with an emphasis on good sportsmanship. The camp's theme is taken from Ecclesiastes: "Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: if either of them fall down, one can help the other out."
