“Being a squirrel genuinely changed my life: Camp gave me the opportunity to spend a week around like-minded people who, rather than making fun of me for asking super nerdy questions, supported and encouraged me and wanted to learn alongside me. I feel so valued and supported by the Squirrel community and knowing that I have folx to turn to, to learn from, to bounce ideas off of, and workshop with is invaluable! Being in a smaller market, I have struggled to find peers and mentors. Now, I have a huge network of people who I can call, no matter how long it’s been since we last spoke. I'm so grateful for us Squirrels.”

“Beyond all the thoughtfully curated education and activities that camp offers, being a squirrel gives you access to a different side of folks. When a new acquaintance finds out you’re a fellow camper, there’s a switch that flips and you become immediately closer. Even coworkers and close friends are able to empathize, reminisce and connect on a deeper level when they hear you’re going to Runamok. Camp makes us kindred.”

“Camp changes lives and saves lives. Not just the days you are at Camp, but every day of the year.”
