We'll have more tutorial/training videos very soon. Meantime, here are the last of our camper quotes from this summer's survey, which included the following question: "Describe the most surprising thing you learned about yourself while at Camp Spring Creek." Here are some of our favorite responses:

"How I say 'a' when I read." (Stefan)
"That I like reading." (K.K.)
"I'm better at things when I try them more than once. I also didn't think I would be good at archery but I was." (Caroline)
