Woolman Camps are programs of the Woolman Friends School, a nonprofit educational community that nurtures the seeds of peace, social justice and environmental sustainability in today's youth. While not a religious camp, the Quaker influence means that all people are treated with respect, differences are resolved peacefully, and stewardship of the earth is an important value.
