    BREVARD, North Carolina (WLOS) — An 8-year-old’s dreams came true Tuesday thanks to the Make-A-Wish Foundation.

Annie Woolridge’s parents describe her as fiery and powerful with a love of the outdoors. They said the Brevard girl feels comfortable and at home in the forest. Woolridge wished to have a pop-up camper so she and her family could go on more adventures together.

At a reveal party in Brevard, Woolridge received her dream camper, as well as new gear to take on her adventures.

“She’s a warrior and a fighter. And it feels really special to let her experience this and have even more reasons to go on adventures and create memories,” her mom Emily Woolridge said.

Annie told her parents they would be camping in the backyard Thursday night to check out their new camper.

After that, they’re excited to travel to mount Pisgah and the beach.
