At first, I was a little worried that I wouldn\u2019t make any friends and scared about being so far from home. But when I got here I received a warm welcome. I have made some of my best friends here and now I would even consider them my family. The staff were extremely nice and welcoming to me and everyone I came with from North Carolina. The activities were really fun and I got lots of exercise and sun. My favorite game\/activity would either be Scream-O or the Decathlon because everyone was screaming and having so much fun all together. What was really cool was when we went whitewater rafting and camping. I would like to thank Asher and Elie for basically dragging me here. This week was phenomenal and I wish I could come back to teen camp, but I am also very excited to go to adventure camp and be an ATL at junior camp next year.<\/p>\n<p>P.S.: Asher looks like Harry Styles.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Emily R., Age 15 Tribe of Simeon My first year at Camp Gilgal was one of the best weeks of my life.
