The Summer Camp experience is intended to help neglected and troubled youth by providing a safe, wholesome, and caring atmosphere, as well as teaching valuable skills and life lessons. Through activities such as swimming, canoeing, and completing a low and high ropes challenge course, children learn how to rely on themselves and each other. They also learn how to problem solve and develop healthy relationships with their peers. The camp experience is designed to help children in a natural setting, surrounded by supportive staff and volunteers. Boys and girls learn how to build trust, self-confidence, and self-esteem through activities and special demonstrations. The camp teaches children to take ownership of their actions and become positive, contributing members of society.
