THANK YOU TO CAMPERS, FACULTY, AND STAFF FOR MAKING THE 2011 MWROC THE BEST ONE YET!!
“The 2011 MWROC was a great success! We were impressed and inspired by the level of energy and commitment everyone brought to camp. This year’s MWROC was truly one of the finest moments not only for me but for all my wonderful faculty and staff as well. It has been a vision of mine for many years to provide a place for innovation, inclusiveness, experimentation, freedom of expression, and exploring roads less traveled. It is incredibly exciting for me to watch my vision take roots and grow to such amazing heights in the course of only two years… thanks for being a part of it!” - Mark Wood
