Live conversations will allow us to provide up-to-the-minute information regarding people at camp, donors, supporters, and interested members of the public.
We *hope* to have someone from camp online in the channel at all times to answer questions regarding conditions in camp, though please understand that this may be difficult, pending logistics problems around keeping us online in a Boston public park.
