This session at SMA Teen Summer Camp has been amazing. I had a lot of fun with my friends. We have done so many fun activities, like doing art studio, waterskiing. The overnights are so fun, because you get to camp with your friends and have fun outside camp.

This camp year I got to spend a lot of time with old and new friends I made at camp, and I hope I come back one day as a counselor or AOP so I can help new campers have such a good time as me. I was able to reconnect with old friends from last summer this session and really enjoyed myself.

               I had one of the best sessions that I’ve ever had at SMA Teen Camp. I reconnected with lots of old friends as well as made new ones. I loved wakeboarding almost every day on Wake Masters. I improved way more than I thought I would and I’m very proud of myself. I really enjoyed both of the wake overnights and I made memories that will stay with me forever. I loved being able to share my thoughts and feelings at candlelight meetings. White water rafting was by far my favorite day at camp. I also enjoyed art studio and the different sports that I did this session. I wish I had pushed myself to participate in more of the activities, but I still have next session. This session taught me so much about myself and gave me lots of new opportunities and memories. I am so grateful for the second session of 2025 and the chance to stay for another session.

Overall, this session was the best! I had so much fun, especially on the canoeing overnight. For me, I love how the whole time we just laughed about so many things. I love Mich’s Momo stories, and our inside jokes (Sin-Jon). I made so many new friends this session, and that made it so much more enjoyable. I had so much fun doing art studio, SUP and sail, and even just being at the farm. I don’t think I have ever laughed this much in the span of two weeks. One of my favorite things about SMA is all of the traditions. From the talent show, to candlelight, to secret friends, these activities are one of the main reasons I look forward to coming to camp every year. I especially enjoyed being a third year this session, because doing dance prep and paper plates was really fun! I also loved playing French Revolution and meeting new people. Something that really made this session the best one yet is all the people here. SMA Teen Summer Camp has the nicest, funniest, and best people I have ever met. Most people I knew from past years, but this year I really became close with them. Feeling like I belong means the world to me, and SMA is the greatest place to feel really at home. Overall, the past two weeks have been the best two weeks of my life, and I wouldn’t have spent it any other way!
