Has anyone ever heard of Camp Farnsworth? It is located in Thetford, Vermont and is a girl scout camp. I was wondering if anyone had ever been there or is going there this summer. I went a couple summers ago as a barn aide and I am returning summer of 2009 as a barn aide again.

in the morning I chilled with the Randall family waiting for the leadline class :]
I helped them get ready and as Maggie went in for Showmanship and Fitting, Stormy arrived. So I got her off the 'bus'.
