Camp Jackson

During the end of July, we went over there to visit him for a couple of weeks. We went over there for my birthday. I was turning ten at the time. It took us two days to get there. We drove for ten hours the first day, stayed the night in Ontario and drove six hours the second day. My dad was working in Montpelier, Idaho. We visited four different

Amid her outing she talks resoundingly to herself in an urging way to bear the troublesome trek.

failing of the central, state and municipal machinery. They have failed in proper execution of laws for the most vulnerable and downtrodden constituents of the society. On spending time in these un-administered, poverty stricken areas of Sanjay Camp, Janta Camp, Shakoorpur basti and GB road district, where we with the help of the Pradhan (Headman of these slums), I got a chance to interact with these people which gave me a realistic insight to their sufferings and problems, starting from commodification

She’s yelling back at me as if we were a football field away from each other. “Mom help me, “I said, “I need something to wear to camp. I want to look like I just stepped out a pot of fabulousness and Beyoncé.” “Kaela,” she said back, “if you don’t hurry and throw on anything and let’s go I’m going to be late for work.” “Ughhhh ok mom since you don’t care about my appearance ill just

parents giving me choice either get a job or go to camp over the summer for 6 weeks again. I really didn’t want to go to the camp my only option was to tail off and get a job at the young age of 15. I started off by applying to hannafords because i heard they were hiring, after waiting 2 weeks and no response other than a thank you for applying i heard nothing back. It was starting to look grim and no other choice but to go away from home and go to camp but there was one last shot i could apply for a

When I was 16 years old, I spent a summer at a Christian camp as a server. Although I was excited at first, I was nervous because while at the camp, you were not allowed to have your phone. The first couple days were hard, I struggled with the idea that I couldn’t talk to my friends all the time, but by the time the camp was over, I lost my desire to use my phone. Even after I left the camp, I began to use my phone less and less. I was able to put my phone down for hours at a time without having

a place like this. My family heard of this camp from a few of our relatives. I have some misgivings about this camp, but I am willing to give it a try. I am not involved in my church that often and this camp is a christian camp so I feel like it is going to be awkward, or maybe I’d be excluded. Camp Shamineau taught me to accept myself for who I am and that everyone else will too, including God. It is now the day that I am supposed to leave for camp and I notice that I am extremely nervous.

Camp Wakeshma has something special about it and always has me wanting to stay longer. Since I was 12 years old, I’ve been going to Wakeshma every summer for a week. This camp is so simple yet so fun and exciting.     I’m driving to camp with William Fulton and our moms when we turn onto Camp Wakeshma Rd. and go under the huge sign reading the name.
