Camp Ipperwash

If making friends was surviving, I sure as hell wasn’t a survivor. When I first signed up for the camp, it was to get my parents off my back. “Do something with hockey, Sophie, you don’t want to fall behind.” The instant my parents didn’t believe in me was the second I thought I was up for the challenge. I was wrong. By the time summer rolled around, I forgot about the camp completely. When my parents told me to pack my bags because it was time for purgatory, I was terrified. Once upon a time, I…

this society. This spring camp was put together last year and I did not grasp the concept…

withdrawals those kids felt. As a middle school student, I attended Hartford County 4H Camp which banned technology from the camp’s premises. At first, I thought a whole week without my iPod shuffle and my flip cellphone would be torturous. However, after a few hours of attending the camp I did not seem to miss technology at all. By the end of the week, I really did not want to go back home to technology. After camp I vowed to spend less time with technology and more time outside. Since it was…

I was about to have a big week ahead of me. I was thirteen years old when I embarked on a journey to go camping with my church friends at a place called the Wilds. I have been to a Christian camp before, but I had never been without my parents. It felt substantially odd that I was going to a Christian camp without my family for one whole week. I was tragically confused with several emotions such as excitement, fear of the unknown, and worry. As the bus left the church parking lot, I watched…

dad decided to send me to basketball camp in Lansing, Michigan. Not too far away from my hometown Grand Rapids, Michigan but is the furthest I 've ever been away from home. My parents choose the camp because it had a good reputation, the camp was founded by isaiah Thomas and had a religious component. They liked that they had an introductory two week program because they didn’t feel I was quite ready for a month away.…

Camp Widjiwagan (Rough Draft) Albus Dumbledore once said, “It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live.” Often, when summer comes around, many kids begin to dream about summer camp. Some of those kids actually get to live those dreams like I did, at Camp Widjiwagan, this summer. It was one week of a Harry Potter themed, outdoors day camp. Camp Widjiwagan was one of the best camps I’ve been to complete with fun and new learning experiences from the new and different people, to all the…

concentration camp at Auschwitz and Birkenau. The memoir paints a picture of a nightmare that the writer had to live through without being able to wake up. The cover of the book seems to be a picture of the concentration camp. A brick structure covers the majority of the picture with a gate in the middle of the structure. There appear to be train tracks leading to the front gate where there are people standing. I believe this cover was chosen to show how much of a prison the concentration camp…

Corporate Capabilities Since the establishment of the event in the spring of 2010, the Intercamp Classic has consistently shown strong financial performances and has raised a total of $291,000. Although Howard does not have a specific marketing budget in mind for the 2013 Classic, the budget is limited because, as a charity event, funds spent on marketing could be seen as taking money away from the charity and could damage the ethical reputation of the event. Past marketing initiatives,…

Jews from death - the 6000 plus descendants of which may have never be born otherwise. Furthermore, the film showcases the overwhelming triumph of the human spirit, which is perhaps best illustrated by the wedding that takes place in Plaszow labour camp. Despite the Jews in Plaszow living in constant fear of death, two people manage to fall in love, and with virtually no future to look forward to marry in the mere hope they will survive. Although Schindler’s list is at its heart a Hollywood…

that the park was established in the December of 1935? I didn’t know. We also read that it’s a national treasure because of the view amazing view of the moutains and all the different colors of leaves in the fall. When my brother got back from rangers camp he told us all about it like the service the rangers…
