From Camper to Leader

A short story about a young man whose confidence grew through camp leadership.

I began in 1993 at the Age of 12. I attended a youth leadership camp. I spent a week with the trainers learning about the wilderness, nature, safety and leadership. It began a lifelong journey of growth and development.

Fast forward 30 years and now I instruct at that same camp. Giving back what I receieved. To say this program and this place had an impact on my life as a man is an understatement, it’s the fabric of which my life is printed on.
