Get Your Kids Ready for Adulthood – Send Them to Summer Camp At summer camp, children become more confident and develop their decision making
skills. This is especially important during tough situations. In addition, at camp kids learn
that a relationship is an investment.
When I think back on my own camp experience, I recall standing on a wooden tower
about 10, maybe 15, feet off the ground. Several people I had recently met stood below.
They ere yelli g at e to fall. I’d just et these people; hy o earth ould I trust them enough to catch me? I put my arms across my chest and fell back through the air.
Wha k! I’d ee aught.
Experiences like these summer after summer brought about remarkable
transformations in my life. I learned how to trust others, work with others and build
relationships. This ultimately helped me to grow up.
Summer camp taught me foundational principles I now rely on as an adult. As a
professional mentor, I encourage many of my clients to attend summer camp if possible.
Watching kids and teens grow as a result of their summer experiences is incredible. Each
su er, it’s o ious they ha e gro a d atured.
