Dear Nan, As looked through last nights photos of camp I saw this photo of Maggie. I immediately teared up as I saw the pure joy on Maggie’s face. (Happy Birthday to Maggie- the best birthday party a girl could have) It reminded me that every extra hour of overtime I put in and the nights I have to travel away from home for work are all worth it!! Thank you Camp Longhorn for instilling strong values, creating the most incredible memories and friendships that will last a lifetime! Maggie looks forward to camp all year long. We are excited for our youngest daughter, Eve, to be part of all the magic Camp Longhorn brings. (1 more summer after this one!) Thank you for all that you and CLH do! We look forward to seeing everyone Saturday! Cheers! HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAGGIE MULLINS Katie Mullins (Indian Springs . . summer of ‘19)
