A Newfound Confidence: Noelle’s Camp Story
We’re beyond proud of all of our campers. When they arrive at Camp, they may be nervous, they may be shy, they may be worried about fitting in. That all changes in minutes. Campers at Camp Boggy Creek are safe, respected, and loved, and that makes a perfect recipe for an amazing life-changing week of fun, friendship, belonging, and confidence building. That’s exactly what happened to Noelle, and now, she’s a Camp Boggy Creek Counselor.
”When I first attended camp at 13 I was painfully shy & struggled to make friends with my peers due to insecurities from my medical condition. I left camp with a newfound confidence after meeting other kids with heart problems for the first time.
Camp lifted me up in a time of need. I attended until the age of 16 & preceded to attend the Leader in Training Program until I was 18, & now years later I get to come back as a counselor. Camp has been a pivotal part of my life, & I still talk to my cabin mates I attended camp with 9 years ago. I look back fondly at my moments at camp & think of how it truly changed my outlook on life thanks to the compassionate counselors & staff at Boggy Creek who lifted me up in a time of need.”
