Camper Testimonial

"I really enjoyed  this camp because there were kids like me. My group was the best group I had to work with because they listened, they were funny, we didn't fight, and we worked together. The other students there were nature lovers like me and I felt like I could be myself around them and the adults. When I got home I told my mom that yes, I missed her, but being at this camp was like me blooming from my cocoon into a beautiful butterfly. Being outside, which I am a lot anyways, with other kids and adults that have the same interests as me and learning more about nature is something extraordinary and I will never forget it. I felt accepted by people and not worried about being seen as weird for loving the outdoors, fish, snakes, turtles, being dirty, and bugs. I was myself!"
