2009 CAMP GOALS

• As a result of Camp Wahoo, campers will use more positive, specific and supportable words to describe themselves than they did when they arrived.
• We will teach our campers how to build strong positive relationships with others.
• We will focus on the "lost camper" - who have not made connections or relationships with others.  We will find them and connect them.
• Campers will experience new activities, things that they have not seen or tried before in camp.
• They will experience the outdoors and all the wonders it has to offer, nature, they will learn to respect it and enjoy it!
