Welcome to Glen Bernard Camp
Description
Glen Bernard Camp provides a caring experience in which campers and staff develop self-confidence. The environment fosters both independence and group belonging. Fun is fundamental to the success of GBC.
Camp is a unique environment. It is a community of people living closely together, learning by example and depending for success on the presence of excellent role models. Camp staff must demonstrate positive values and make healthy choices. At camp, we learn how and when to lead and how and when to follow; how to look for risks, keep ourselves safe and challenge our comfort zones. We learn how to be positive role models. This is why we need camp more than ever and forever.
Give an opening to a camper of any age and instantly you get a camp story. Remember the camper who said, “ I love it here at camp!” When asked why, she said: “At home I don’t have a lot of friends and I don’t do much, but at camp it’s different. At camp, I think I might be cool.” Most of these stories are recalled because camp is about experiences with other people — how you figure out who you are and what you want to become.
