    “This is a wonderful gift that will help families all across Northern Maine so that their children with disabilities can have fun at Camp CaPella this summer,” observes Dana Mosher, executive director of Camp CaPella. “Every Wal-Mart store in the Northern District contributed to this gift, and this is a great message Wal-Mart is sending to our communities. Good for them, good for the kids, and we are very, very grateful for the Northern District Wal-Mart stores reaching out to us, and especially to our campers.
    “As Camp CaPella reopens this summer, we’re happy to know there will be children there having a great vacation at camp who might not have had this opportunity without the scholarship contributions from the Northern District Wal-Mart stores,” Mosher concludes.
