Skyland In the News: Reinvent Family Vacation at Summer Camp

Mother-Daughter Weekend at Skyland Camp for Girls was featured in a recent Charlotte Parent Magazine article and highlighted Mary Elizabeth Trent, who attended with her daughter, Maddy.

“‘Being outside in this beautiful environment was such a nurturing and empowering experience,’ she says, ‘You feel like you are transported to another world.’ Passed down by generations of women…the camp was ignited with feminine power and positive encouragement in an environment that promoted courage, grit and compassion.”
