The camp was very good. I liked it because it was in God’s creation. (True) Father said that now we should care about our surroundings. I didn’t like the fact that there was no electricity or mirrors, but I lived. Probably I would have been late to lectures and things if there were those things. I was not excited at all about coming to this camp, basically because I came from far away and I didn’t know anyone, but now I am very glad I came because it has been a good experience for me.

Before, I didn’t want to go because none of my friends were going, but I made new friends and saw people from last summer. I made many new friends right away, it’s hard not to when everyone was so wonderful and open. I find it so much easier to relate to them, seeing as how we share a very important thread, True Parents.Also, during this workshop, I liked my group and having group discussions and stuff. Our group leader was really great. No offense to the adults, but I liked having a 2nd generation elder as a group leader because she gave us a lot of advice about school, the blessing, and stuff like that.

I loved the square dance. I liked it this year that we could dance with our friends at the end. I could take up pages about it. I probably had the most fun square dancing. I felt God’s presence with us, like he was having as much fun as we were. I understood then about when my dad said that God needed us to experience joy through. At first I really, really didn’t want to square dance but when I did, I really enjoyed it. I thought the dance was very fun despite the partner I got (he was very short and couldn’t waltz with me).

I especially liked the candlelight prayer and pictionary. Crafts were great and so were the sports…I loved the square dance, candlelight prayer and especially pictionary because we won! I bet the talent show will be good too! The evening programs like the candlelight prayer, campfire, pictionary, the dance I really liked, the camp & lectures. I liked everything.

Whether it be at camp or not, I am happy to be with other blessed children.

I really love being here in this atmosphere with other BC’s. I rarely get the chance to do this, and when I do, it becomes all the more special. I met a lot of people and got to hang around with other BC’s which isn’t something I can do often.

I learned to overcome difficulties (such as the fear of spiders) very quickly. Instead of concentrating on external things, I was able to concentrate on my relationship with God because of the heavenly atmosphere. But I think the most important part was that I think and hope this camp made me a better person. I gained a lot of new knowledge through the lectures and also felt God’s presence during the campfire and our prayers with candles …Establishing a relationship with God was, on the other hand, not as easy. I really didn’t know where to begin or how to start. The prayer over candlelight was wonderful. This is when I felt closest to God. Being in his creation, just pouring out my heart to him through tears and average conversation. It was the most wonderful experience, and truthfully, I felt and I knew He was listening, this was, to me, the best part of camp. I made a lot of new friends and my relationship towards God improved (mostly from the candlelight prayer and lectures).

Every time I come to a camp like this I feel that I become closer to God and I understand everything a little more clearly. I feel more like an older sister and I found myself really loving everyone as it they were my younger brother or sister. I especially liked the candlelight prayer. I really felt close to God, I actually cried!

The food was a lot better than most of the other camps I go to so that was definitely a plus. The food? . . . As last year, flawless! The food was good and the servers were friendly too! The food was "Da Boom!" PLEASE KEEP THE COOK! She made the BEST FOOD! I LOVED IT. All the food was GREAT.
