My summer here at Camp DeWolfe has definitely been one of the biggest learning experiences of my life. As soon as I arrived at camp, I instantly felt part of the camp family. The bonds and friendships I have made here have been so strong – I am confident I have made amazing friends for life.
Camp DeWolfe will always have a special place in my heart, as here I developed my faith in God and have been involved in such a strong community of friends who genuinely care about each other.
Natural setting is my favourite core value at camp. It has been a really eye opening experience for me to be surrounded by the Long Island Sound and the breath taking scenery. To have been given the opportunity to take a step back from a world focused on technology and instead pay attention to building real relationships and appreciating nature has been so beneficial for me – and something I will try to remember when I get back to the ‘real’ world!
I would like to say thank you to the Tees family for giving me the opportunity to spend 9 weeks at Camp DeWolfe and to learn so much about myself, others and the true importance of community! Summer 2015 will certainly be one I will always remember!
Until next time…
