Inspiration & Vision

One quiet day by a creek, Scott found his mind filled with the constant chatter of thoughts—a steady background noise of ideas and reflections. In that moment, he noticed a tiger swallowtail in striking black and white, its wings moving with the delicate grace of a carefully painted sketch. Time seemed to slow as he observed this singular creature, and he felt an invitation to quiet his mind, letting go of internal chatter to simply be present.

This encounter has become a guiding touchstone for Scott, reinforcing his belief that moments of stillness and deep connection with nature are vital. At Camp Monarch, he is driven to cultivate initiatives that blend innovative approaches with the mindful, restorative power of nature—encouraging others to pause, reflect, and rediscover the beauty in the natural world.
