Summer Camp Empowers Teens to Grow, Lead and Thrive

When you think of summer camp, you may picture young children – but the fun doesn't stop once your child hits their teen years.

Here's what to look for when selecting a summer camp for teens.

Balance of independence and mentorship. Teens need room to spread their wings – but they still benefit from the guidance of experienced counselors who provide structure and support.

A break from screens. Look for a camp like Teen Trek,where teens spend four days a week going on field trips and adventures. They'll be too busy to think about their phones!

Resume-worthy experiences. Today's teens face pressure to stand out in competitive college and job markets. Programs like Counselors-in-Training and Leaders-in-Training build leadership skills that are both meaningful and memorable.

Strong core values. Adolescence is foundational for developing character and confidence. Look for a camp that instills caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility.

Summer camp is a transformative experience – one that helps teens build the character, confidence, and connections that last a lifetime. YGBW's teen summer camps offer a safe and supportive space to grow.

I've been on the hunt for a very specific trellis for our garden. Not something I'd find at Home Depot or Home Goods. I'm picturing something old, a little weathered, maybe a bit quirky. Vintage, but not too vintage. I can't actually describe it, but I'll know it when I see it. Of course, I could find something beautiful at...
