It's really about relationships. The core activities ? the swimming pool, the tower ? those are fun things the kids like to do, but they come back summer after summer because of the friends they make.

They learn how to make friends. That's something that you just assume everybody knows how to do, but that's one of the biggest things kids get out of camp.

She did it four more times that same week of camp. She's just a whiz on our tower now.

We're all dressed up and doing this for fun, but (our ancestors) really went through this.

I thought it was kind of a fun shooting day. I like it when it's kind of adverse conditions. It was tough, but it was fun.

For the last two-three years, you didn't feel you had a permanent school. Now the kids should feel they have a permanent home. I think this will help pride come back. This is something the kids will be proud of.
