Wow. It’s my last session at SMA Teen Camp as a camper and I’m feeling so many feelings. I don’t know how to put it into words. I love SMA Teen Camp. This place has helped me so much. I have learned so many things from so many people here. I can honestly say that person I am today is partially a result of the amazing summers I've spent here at camp. I don’t have much to say except that I’ll miss this place so much and it will be weird not having it to look forward to throughout the year. This was easily one of the best sessions I’ve ever been to. The Furnace was on point. I jumped the wake, if all those goofs at home could me now they’d say “wow, he jumped the wake, I’m glad we can see him now,” and that’s what they’d say. All and all SMA has made ma a better person.

What an unforgettable first experience at SMA! Starting with the North East van with Will and Jem, every part was a blast! We got lost picking up most campers but it only made us laugh louder. I was impressed by the spirit and love shared by the group. Within a day I felt like I had made 50 new friends. Today, just two weeks in and I know I have made a new family and I am proud to call this place my second home! From the activities to the atmosphere, I easily forgot about any outside problems and got to submerge myself into camp. Everyday was filled warm-fuzzies and firsts. I topped-out a climb, slept under the stars, wake-boarding, made bracelets and had a wide smile continuously.
Mattawanna was so loving and supportive no matter how messy it was. The people I met at SMA will be there for me forever and vice versa. The counselors became my parents (Ben and Helen) and overall best friends. I am so thankful. Now as it wraps up all to fast, I hold these adventures close to my heart. I hope to never forget it or take camp for granted. I can’t wait to come back next year!! Cheers Luv!
