My experience with camp started long before most! My mom, Gabi, worked at Brighton along with my aunt, Stretch, long before I was even in existence! So I was raised singing the camp songs and hearing the stories long before I was old enough to go. When the time came, my cousin, Speedy, and I were able to go as campers. We were not with a ward, we got to go under special circumstances because our moms worked there! We loved it, we became the best of friends because of camp and had such amazing memories because of it! We were truly loved by so many beautiful and inspiring ladies who truly took us under their wings and loved us so perfectly! Our councilors were Kicks, Harmony (2 years in a row), and Rally. They were truly inspirational, and we were loved by many of the other staff members as well! I really needed that love because I had been really badly bullied and pranked by ward members and at ward girls camp. It was so bad that I told my mom I never wanted to go to camp again! And I didn’t go with my ward, but Brighton was there for me in my truest moments of need! I even celebrated my birthday there each year because I loved it so much!
