The clearest way into the Universe is through a forest wilderness.” -John Muir The forest wilderness of St. Dorothy’s’ Rest is my path to God. To have the opportunity to transform hundreds of acres of exploited land into a restored redwood forest is a legacy given to few of us. We work now for our grandchildren’s great grandchildren.

I have never worked or lived at a place as special as St. Dorothy's Rest. From the towering redwoods to the loving people there is something about St. Dot's that draws me closer to nature and God. I feel right about myself when I am at St. Dots. To be able to be apart of the community again would be wonderful! To have the chance to give back to the little campers, to teach and show them of the love and peace that St. Dorothy's Rest brings is why I want to return.

St. Dorothy’s is where I found my second family and my home away from home, but I never would have been able to step out and discover that without the amazing support from the staff. I want to give kids the chance to find the same thing when they come to camp.
