“Having participated in camp performances, as well as lead numerous campfires, camp gave me the confidence to perform, present and speak in front of groups. I now present in my job almost everyday and love it.”

“Between the campers and the employees I learned selflessness, accountability, self-love, patience, hard work, and the importance of supportive relationships. Fernwood Cove provided a safe environment that pulled me out of my comfort zone while encouraging me every step of the way.”

“The work I did at camp fits in perfectly to the work I carry out as a Community Development Student and Practitioner – all ranging from my experience in team building games, to focusing on the issue of how technology dictates our society and speaking of the importance for people to disconnect themselves from technology and to connect to each other and nature more.”

“Working at Fernwood Cove throughout the summer was a completely life-changing experience for me, I feel as though the very best side of me was brought out. Ever since returning back to England, I have been constantly thinking about camp and all the amazing memories I made. I feel as though I grew so much as a person and would love to be able to have to opportunity to do so again.”

“I learned how to be confident, lead effectively, listen openly and offer advice, collaborate with others, think on my feet and adapt when things don’t go according to plans. Working at camp has taught me so many incredible skills, some of which I doubt I would have had the opportunity to gain if I had spent my summers as an intern.”
