The first year The Meadows felt like home.
Campout for the Cause brought 400 people to The Meadows in Buena Vista for its ninth year, and its first year as a home for this family's cause. Emmy's Friends ran a handmade Sweet Shop: a pink sign, a donation jar, and prayer flags the community covered in their own words. They raised $5,000 that weekend, and $500 went to the Arkansas Valley River Trust.
