🌿 At Farm & Wilderness, we've always known the transformational power of summer camp. Now we have the research to prove it! 🗺️Today, we're thrilled to release "Decoding the Magic of Camp," a report that combines insights from our campers, community, and child development experts. We've uncovered how our camps foster crucial areas of youth development: 🏎️Self-Efficacy: 71-87% of campers cite skill development as crucial. Our campers are conquering challenges they never thought possible! 🏡Community Mindedness: 86% of Tamarack Farm campers emphasize the importance of community building. They're learning to be part of something bigger than themselves. 💗Authentic Identity: 1 in 5 campers highlight identity development as key. At F&W, kids discover who they are, free from social media pressures. 📡Curious about how summer camps are shaping the next generation? Dive into our full report, linked in our bio! #SummerCampMagic #FarmAndWilderness
