From 1978-1992, Sue’s parents sent her to Glen Bernard Camp, believing it would provide her with skills and opportunities that would benefit her future. Sue created relationships that “remain strong no matter the time that passes, [because] friendships created at camp are timeless,” but also a lifelong relationship with her environment. “I still love the outdoors and spend time hiking, camping, canoeing, kayaking, horseback riding and sailing—skills that I learned at camp.”
Enjoying the outdoors, respecting her environment and being active are just a few of the lessons that Sue learned at camp. “While I enjoyed a great education, including university, I often say that it was camp that has set me up for the success that I enjoy today. Camp taught me the importance of hard work, communication, planning, working with others and independently, understanding how to succeed and experiencing success in a supportive environment, but one that taught independence. If I had to narrow it to one thing, I would say that camp taught me to be a good leader.”
At Glen Bernard Camp, Sue remembers most vividly the amazing sunsets, challenging portages and incredible role models. Even the mistakes she made, like dumping sailboats, created funny moments and lasting memories. Sue feels lucky to have been able to experience it all with people who have become her lifelong friends.
When we asked Sue if she recommends parents send their kids to camp, her answer was unequivocal: “Absolutely, it ranks up there with university, and there is no question that camp prepares you for university. Camp provides a safe environment for kids to learn independence and teamwork. Confidence is key in life and camp allows kids to have successes, successes they can own. Camp is an education, an education on getting along, on working hard towards a goal, on problem solving, on stepping out of comfort zones, on achievement. All these life skills are learned in a fun, creative and safe environment. This is in addition to hard skills that you learn: riding, sailing, canoe tripping or whatever skills your child has an interest in exploring. Camp creates important relationships, relationships that will benefit your kids throughout their lives. Camp is an important investment in a child’s future.”
Written by Kimberley Fowler
