Now, the facebook group, Killdevil Camp and Conference centre, Friends and Alumni, has a new post. It basically says friends of Killdevil is a group that is growing every day collecting names of those with a special place in their heart for the over 60-year-old camp,. The post reads, “We would love to have Killdevil survive for many more years to come. Please comment with your name and hometown so these can be transferred to the document!
