Theresa went off to the Teen Institute Leadership camp on Sunday July 19th. The Camp had about 60 kids and 40 staff. Here is a picture of the whole camp group.
Theresa stayed in a bunk with other girls that she had never met. Good thing she is so easy going and can make friends so easily.
During the week Theresa went to several large group workshops that included date violence and Don't dis ability. The teens then broke up into their small groups for discussions and share stories. This is Theresa's small group finding a hidden area in one of the cabins where they met for small group. They made a time capsule and put it in the hidden area.
They had many whole group activities such as a dance and skit night. These are some photo's from the skit night. Theresa's group acted out the movie Juno.
Here are some friends that Theresa made while she was at camp.
Theresa came hope with great stories and experiences to share. She came home with new knowledge about the world and strategies to use and share in the community. I am thankful she was able to take part in this experience.
I am proud of Theresa and I just know that she will use all the skills she aquired during the week...
