Once upon a time, in the sun-soaked peninsula of Florida, a land famous for its golden beaches, juicy oranges, and legendary alligators, there existed an army of tiny dancers known as the Dancing Giggly Gators. These sprightly little tots from all over the state loved to shake, twirl, and tap their feet more than anything else in the world. The Dancing Giggly Gators were led by Captain Camila, a spunky 10-year-old with a fiery spirit and a fiery mane of hair to match. Captain Camila could twirl faster than a spinning hurricane. Whenever she danced, her hair swirled around like a fiery tornado, and the Floridian sun would shine a little brighter! These Floridian kids were as diverse as the state itself. From the panhandle to the Keys, their dance moves were as fiery as Miami salsa, as graceful as the Spanish moss in Tallahassee, and as full of zest as the citrus groves in Fort Myers. They could pirouette like the flamingos in Everglades, jive like the Miami Heat on the basketball court, and do the robot like the space shuttles at Cape Canaveral. The Giggly Gators danced everywhere - on the beach, in the orange groves, even on airboats while dodging the playful splashes from the dolphins! Every beat of their feet was a burst of joy, every twirl a celebration of childhood. But remember, the Dancing Giggly Gators weren’t just about impressive dance moves. Their laughter was louder than a space shuttle launch. And their jokes? Gator-Teeth Grinning worthy! "Why don't alligators like fast food?" One of them would ask. When you'd shrug, they'd yell, "Because they can't catch it!" and then dissolve into a fit of giggles. Ah, those Dancing Giggly Gators! What a jolly, jiggy bunch they were!

The Caruth Camp has been around for many years, providing a wilderness camping experience to boys who otherwise might not have been able to participate in residential childcare. Experiential learning opportunities were the cornerstone of the program, and it was successful in its mission, albeit limited in scope to 18 participants. In 1997, the camp underwent a transformation, shifting its focus to the Project Harmony program. Project Harmony is a 5 day leadership retreat for middle school students, aimed at teaching children communication and problem-solving skills while addressing any racial tension or conflicts within the schools. During the retreat, participants undergo intensive training in conflict resolution, cultural diversity, environmental awareness, group-building exercises, academics, and camping. This highly successful program has been nationally recognized, and combined with the Summer Camp and other family programs, serves thousands of boys and girls each year.
