Summer 2004 Student Testimonials

“ …I have learned so much about myself, some good and some bad, but I would have never found myself without this camp.”

-Wilderness Opportunities 21-day student


“This is an awesome program that has dramatically changed my outlook on school, work ethic, and overall.”

“Thank you so much for giving me a new beginning to a new life.”

-Wilderness Opportunities 21-day student


“I’m writing this from camp, it’s day 19, and I just wanted to thank you [legal guardians] for sending me to this program. It has actually helped me in my communication, trust, and my thoughts on wanting to physically push my body. I’m actually grateful of you guys for sending me here. When I come home I think you guys will see a definite change in my behavior, language, and my decision making.”

-Wilderness Opportunities 21-day student


“I have spent these 20 days out here, and to be honest with you [Dad] (and don’t you say “I told you so”) I have had some of the most fun I have ever had, and probably will ever have in my entire life. I’ve met some really amazing people, and I can’t believe I almost passed this opportunity up.”

“I thought you guys [parents] were tying to punish me for messing up but spending all of this time out here, I’ve realized that you only did it because you love me and you want the best for me and my life. No matter what I said before I left, thank you so much Dad.”

“I think one of my favorite things I’ve done up here was our summit to the top of Matchless (it’s this mountain that’s over 12,000 feet). We got up there and we were really tired because it is a really hard climb, but man, the view was incredible.”
