“I can’t believe we made all that money for charity,” exclaimed one happy camper. “We helped to make all the baked goods,” stated another. Through classroom activities and community based projects, participants explored the traits of successful leaders and learned how to use those skills to help make a positive impact on our world. They were encouraged and empowered to serve and lead by setting goals, making decisions, solving problems, and working as a team. Students were equipped with the knowledge and tools to take what they've learned out of camp and practice serving and leading in their lives.
