Camp Akeela Staff Reviews
Thank you for one of the most profound experiences of my life. There really are no words the describe the impact you’ve made on my life. — Staff
I know that I only spent one summer at Akeela, but I still talk about that summer with friends, coworkers, at interviews and I reflect on it all the time. The skill set I had to learn has been the most beneficial thing for me in the ‘real world.’ — Staff
Akeela changed my life for the absolute better. It solidified the face that I want to work with this quirky, amazing population now and in the future. When I attend grad school for speech pathology, I want to specialize in autism spectrum disorder, partly due to the interactions I had with the Akeela campers. — Staff
I’ve never been around so many genuine people as I was at Akeela. Whether it be on the waterfront, or within the core of the bunk, in the dining hall or on the front lawn, I made a lifetime of memories and friends to last me forever. — Staff
Akeela changed my life. Some of the most powerful moments I have ever experienced happened at camp, yet it’s still as if they happened yesterday. It was with the campers that I truly understood the power of friendship and the pain of loneliness – but also the joy of being alone. — Staff
