. . . on the results of summer camps confirmed many of our assumptions.

In this study conducted by the American Camp Association, researchers found that summer camps increase self-esteem and confidence. Consider the following statement:
 
“Self-esteem does not come from empty praise, but from feeling competent; from having success experiences; from making genuine contributions. Camps are uniquely suited to provide these opportunities to young people.”
 
What about 6 months later?
In this same study the American Camp Association followed up with the parents 6 months later and found…
 
More than 96% of parents agreed with the statement, “The people at camp helped my child feel good about him/herself and 92% of campers agreed that people at camp helped them feel good about who they were.”
 
 
For the average child, self-esteem is . . .
. . . crucial to development. But for kids from disadvantaged backgrounds, self-esteem can be truly life-altering.
 
Giving kids the time of their lives can change their futures.

Enjoy Camp for a Day!

Stepping on the grounds of Warm Beach Camp feels like home. From alumni summer staff to guest group participants, Warm Beach has become a second home to our Partners in Ministry. Last May, at the Partners in Ministry Open House, I reconnected with my friend and fellow summer staff alumni I worked with 22 years ago.
