Heard Around Camp:
“All of us have something inside of us that needs to be lit. Camp I Am Me Summer Camp helps us find what that thing is and also how to light it.”
“I came here wanting to just be alone. But now, I realize everyone here is really here for everyone, and I no longer want to be alone.”
