My mother’s people were Quakers in Pennsylvania and apparently even knew Ben Franklin (he mentioned one of them in a diary entry, upon his return from France). Maybe they were some of the group that convinced him to free the people he’d enslaved? Don’t know. They even had a home that was part of the Underground Railroad (they were named in a book!). I send my kids to Quaker summer camp in Maine, and it’s a good fit for our family though I’m not religious now. Didn’t you go to a clothing-optional camp?
