Episode 25 - C-J. & Camp Startlight

Y'all, C-J. joined me on Monday to tape a very special podcast.  We talk about Camp Starlight, a camp for young people affected by HIV/AIDS and Mr. C-J. is going there for his 4th year to be a camp counselor.

There's a quick and easy way to help Camp Starlight. Donate to Camp Starlight's team page for the Portland AIDS Walk.  Money the team raises goes directly to camp for next year.

C-J., have a wonderful time at camp and come back to The Candy Show to tell us all about it!
