If you're looking for an amazing summer camp this year, look no further! Camp Stomping Ground is an overnight summer camp for ages 6-17 located in Upstate New York. This camp is doing fantastic work with young people! They focus heavily on creating a diverse camper and staff population and making space for campers to have choice and autonomy for the most incredible and fun experiences for everyone.

"At Stomping Ground we are partnering with young people to inspire the next generation of radically empathetic decision makers through humble curiosity, personal responsibility, restorative practices, and unbounded creativity.

Summer camp should be a place where we can create the world we want our kids to live in and help inspire them to re-imagine what is possible when they leave. At Stomping Ground that means creating a culture based on authentic friendships, treating people the way they want to be treated, dreaming enormous dreams, singing by the campfire, playing gaga, and so much more.

Join us this summer for the BEST SUMMER EVER!"

John Holt, one of my top heroes! And you?

I don't know if anyone will see this, as I have left this page largely unattended for many years. But, somehow, slowly over time, people keep on liking this page!

One, two, sometimes three a week find me. Several hundred of you over the last few years!! And I want you to know, I'm super grateful. And I know that you sought out this page for a reason.

Later on in 2021, I'm going to be putting some major work into this Liberating Kids project. I am graduating with my master's in education from the University of Washington, if I can ever finish my thesis on the Free Schools movement!!

Every day I dream of who I want to interview when I start up the Liberating Kids podcast again. I want this to be a space to showcase all of the conversations and projects going on all over the world that people need to hear about.

Parents, young people, teachers, staff, dreamers, academics--all of the gloriously liberating things that you are doing! We will have a podcast and a YouTube channel for sure, and who knows what else!! I'd like to create a clearinghouse of connection and information and community.

That is my dream, and that's why I went to grad school in the first place. I'm quitting my job and moving to Europe in the fall so that I can live more cheaply and focus on this project. Please stay with me here.

I'm getting ready to activate this project, FINALLY!!! If you read all the way through, please give this a like or write a comment!!!!!! Talk to you soon! xoxo Alicia
