why attend camp violet?

"Violet Camp was a chance for me to self-reflect away from all the noise of life. The best part is that you get to do it with an amazing group of women. I've learned and connected with those I wouldn't have ever gotten to chance to in my mundane day-to-day routine. It was an enlightening, heart-warming weekend and felt it was not long enough! Attend if you have a chance!"
