Students:

Thank you so much! You made me realize that nothing in life should be taken for granted. When I came back home from camp I was eager to share all the new information with my family and friends!

Kristen

Camp of CHAMPS thing inspired me to be more confident in myself! Thank you.

Mallory

Aric: I really enjoyed your camp. It helped me out a lot. I'm going through some things right now and you helped me look past all of that for those few days and to just be me! THANKS!!!

Briced

Thanks for making my summer fun. I really learned a lot at camp and I am going to do all my list of goals for this year. As it is, I made the all stars softball team, and I am working hard so that I will make it to varsity this year. You are the best.

Priscilla

I know you hear this.. ALL the time, but you really did make me look at life in a different way. You also made me look at myself in a different way. I seriously feel more confident in myself. This was my first year to be at your camp and this coming school year will be my first year to be a PAL and I'm totally excited about it now. The kids made me feel UNBELIEVABLE. You are truly an amazing guy.

Sara

I just wanted to thank you for the AMAZING impact you have had in my life!

Yvette

Aric don't you see that by just talking to us and encouraging us that you've put a little voice in our head that keeps on saying you're gonna make it, and there is only one way that I can possibly pay you back. I'll definitely come back for as many years as I'm allowed. So if you see a 50 year old man in the crowd that'll be me!

Camp of CHAMPS was very cool! It seemed like every day was another experience and not only did it affect me, but when I took that information back home, it affected every one I was around.
