    Camp is a tradition in my family. I was the 3rd generation to attend my camp. But still, I think that camp changed my life. Camp gave me confidence, inspired me to be involved in the world and took me out of the world of books.

    Campers build lifelong friendships, gain confidence, develop interests and skills, become more independent and in short - discover the best in themselves. the better question is why wouldn't you send your chlid to summer camp?

    Camp is a place often where you are alone with your thoughts for you first extended time. It prepares you for yourself. There are memories... fun...all things new but really the campfire, crafts, archery etc...these all speak to ones feeling about themselves as he/she looks at others works and ideas. When one arrives home from camp they inevitable come away changed somehow. Great opportunity!!
