I was Camp Counselor in '85, Unit Leader from '86 - '88 (all in Sioux Cabin, by the way!) and Program Director with Jase Waller in '89. Camp Soroptomist was the single biggest learning curve in all my "growing up" years. I am now a Principal at an elementary school in Florida and think of Camp often and fondly. e-mail: arneson898@cox.net

Hi, it's me again!  How is everyone?  I'm dying to hear from anyone that might have some recollection of the years '88-'00.  Would love to hear from my British buddies, too.  (Yes, Nick!  I remember you!  I have a picture of us after the dance in [I forget what year]).  LOL!  When I move to England, which I eventually will, I'll have to track you down.)  E-mail me, people!  "God save the Queen!"   Miss all of you and thanks for the memories!

KDSARAC at aol.com ...please put "CAMP SUMMIT" in the subject line. Thanks!

Camp Soroptimist/Summit will always hold a special place in my heart, not
only because it was where I experienced my first taste of "freedom" for a
summer as a teenager, or because it's where I met my husband of 10 years,
but also because of the wonderful and unique campers I encountered there and
the tremendous experiences offered to make them feel as independent as
possible.  Camp left an imprint on my heart and I intend to pass that along
to my own children as they grow older.

Please pass along a sincere hello to any staffers from the summer of '91 and
volunteers for some time after.

Much continued success as you look forward to your move.

Camp Soroptimist was without a doubt the single biggest influence on my life. I was a counselor from '81 to '84 and secretary in '85. Scott was the pool guy and we got married at Camp in '85. He is now an OT and I am a director for a special ed. co-op. We have 2 boys, Brandon is 14 and Carter is 12. Lots of good times at camp and some sad ones too. It is terrific to see the pictures and I hope to see some of the Acorn people at the anniversary.

S1 Hello to everyone @ camp.  I'm sorry that I was there this year.  But don't fret I do plan on being back & better next year.  I missed seeing everyone's smiling & friendly faces.  This has been an extra long summer for me since I wasn't able to get my dose of fun @ camp.  Once again I can't wait to get back in gear next year.  So look out everyone I'll be even fiestier next.

As I prepare a summer camp for the children in my little village, you guys at camp summit are in my thoughts daily. I don't think I would have the strength to get through some of the tough days in Peace Corps without the wonderful learning experiences I had while working at your Camp. The staff and campers there really are the salt of the earth.
I love you guys, and thank you!!

I attended camp this summer from June 4-10th.  This was one of the best years that I've had since I started attending in 1999.  There were several people there that made the week totally awesome for me.  I'd like to THANK Savanah (Sports/Games) for helping me w/ some exercises I wanted to do.  I'd also like to THANK Scott (Ropes) for making ropes really enjoyable this year.  I'd like to THANK him for making the dance a very enjoyable & memorable night for me.  Scott, you'll never know what it meant to me.

Hello to everyone!! I just wanted to say that I did miss Camp Summitt a lot this past summer and thought about everyone there. Camp Summitt is one of the most amazing places I've ever seen and I learned more that summer than I possibly ever will.

I was a counselor at Camp Soroptimist in 1983. I have great memories from there, memories that will last a lifetime. I highly recommend working there if anyone is thinking about it. You will learn a lot about yourself and the campers.

Judy started attending in 1974 when she was a little-bitty ten-year-old. I could almost not leave my "baby" but when I went to pick her up she had latched on to counselor Brian and did not want to come home. She loves camp and never misses a session. When she is at home, she looks every day at the scrapbook we made with all her camp journals and pictures. The staff there has got to be the finest group of young people in the world! Thanks to all of you for enriching my daughter's life.

For the first time I attended the Adult Physically Challenged week June 5-11, 2005 for people ages 30 & older. I had an absolute blast there this year especially meeting all of the new counselors that were there this year. I definitely enjoyed being in Cheyenne cabin. I want especially thank Sarah & Libby who were in Cheyenne as counselors for their help when I hurt my back. There were several male counselors there that I also enjoyed meeting. They made the week extremely enjoyable for me.

I'm so sad to read that Camp Summit will be moving to another location. The current site holds so many fond memories for me. I was a counselor in 1990-1992 and consider those three summers the best of my life. I would love to hear from other counselors from that time (Shannon Higgons, Lisa Louvers, Brent Baker, Lee Weber, Jon Hailey, Shawn Miller, Jeff Day, and any others. sddchatt@yahoo.com.

Leticia R.

San Antonio, Tx

I worked at Camp Summit from 1979-1981 as a camp counselor and unit leader when it was known as Camp Soroptimist. It was fun and fulling to meet so many wonderful campers and their families. As a college student it helped me develop a more sensitive attitude towards others and prepared me as a teacher for the early phases of inclusion for special needs students in public schools. To this day I treasure the fond and loving memories of my summers at Camp Summit. If any former counselors or campers from that period would like to contact me you can reach me a letirod2@yahoo.com. To all the 2005 summer campers I wish you a terrific summer at Camp Summit!

Wayyyy back in 1978 I was fortunate enough to be a counselor at Camp Soroptimist (Summit) in Zuni cabin with "Twinkle". I was 18 and now 27 years later, the memories came sweeping back as I happened upon this website. I remember Freddy! and so many other campers who had a permanent, positive life changing impact on me, along with the exceptional staff! I pray that God continues to bless this camp and all who are apart of it.

hi my name is Cara. I have been a camper at camp summit since I was about 8 years old and have been comming back ever since. Last summer I met a guy a camper named Eric. I always have an AWESOME time at camp Summit. Camp is the highlight of my summer. It rocks!! Keep up the awesome work.

Kassi
McKinney,Texas
It was the summer of 1998-1999 that I was a volunteer as a counselor and it was just for extra credit in college so I really didnt think it was going to be a big deal. I have to say it was one of the best experiences I have ever had and that I will always remember. The campers make you see things in a different way and make you feel so lucky to have known them for such a short time..there smiles and such big hearts keep you wanting to come back.
Its been along time since I have been back but I will never forget the memories and the pictures that I have and anyone I meet I tell them about what a great thing Camp Summit is and if you ever get the time its something
everyone should experience..it makes you see just what you take for granted in your life and makes you do some serious soul searching. Keep up the great work that you do Camp Summit, You guys are awesome!!!! ~Kassi~

Takin' it old school here. We think it was 1990-1995, somewhere in that time frame... Kirk, Brent and Scott Baker were our stage names and the camp was called Soropt-a-something...life-changing is all we remember. You can follow Brent and Kirk at www.bakervilleband.com....we don't know where our brother is...somewhere in Oklahoma (we believe). We love camp and our band is playing the November Benefit dinner at Eddie Dean's for Camp Summit...and we will be in the Dallas area that entire weekend...go to the website and keep in touch all you old schoolers. Peace Out and Work It, the baker boys

Sean I. has been telling us about this wonderful camp! He has told us many interesting stories from his time there. He hopes to "tweak it" (the camp - he is throwing out the idea to make the camp not just for people with disabilities)! That came straight from Sean's mouth!

Hi guys! I was just passing through and looking through the photo album, and it brought back a lot of great memories. I volunteered there last November and it was the most exhilarating experience of my life! I hope to volunteer again in the near future, and I love all of you. God Bless!

The Camp of June 6th - 12th, 2004 was a blast, even though it rained most of the time I was there. I am looking forward to next summer. Hopefully we will be able to do more next year. Thank You Brennan

This summer 04 was a great experience for my son. When I picked him up from camp he was so happy and had so much confidence in himself. I am so proud of him and I want to thank everyone that helped my son believe in himself. My son has made friends that he will never forget. This camp holds a very special place in our hearts and we cant wait to see all of you guys again next year.

Hi, I was a councilor in the summer of 89, back when Camp Summit was Camp Soroptimist. To this day the experiences and the people I encoutered in that magical summer continues to enrich my life. A piece of my heart will forever belong to Texas. I would love to hear from anyone who was there that summer, especially Chip (studhoss, skittleage) Campbell, or Lee Weber, or Cheryl Muncy. In fact staff, campers, past and present who want to say hello can reach me at: Douglas@Gilgallon.Demon.co.uk

How's it going? Camp really was an awesome experience. I believe that this place made as much of an impact on me as it has on some campers. I would just like to thank Lisa and Brad for giving me the chance to work with some awesome people (counselors and campers). I am going to remember all the great times I had with Tejas cabin mainly. They were great. But always remember the HO's (Arapaho Cabin) is always the BEST. I love you all and if I don't make it out next summer then I will miss a whole lot of you.

My daughter Shelby came to camp summit for the first time last week. As a mom i saw such a change when i picked her up. She had more self confidence, and many great memories. I would recommend this camp, and have to any parent that has a child with a delay. The staff, SHAWNEE CABIN was so great. I still am amazed at the fact that these teens do this on their summer break!
Thanks again, Angela C.
P.S. Billy, she will never forget your kindness.

I went to the YAPC week June 20 - June 26.  I enjoyed myself.  I enjoyed getting to see several people that returned from last summer.  I loved my counselors.  I've known 2 of them for about 10 yrs because we attended church together.  It was wonderful to get to see them after all these years.  Three of them I had as counselors last year.  There was only new girl that I didn't know.  I had an absolute blast with them.  They made the week very enjoyable for me especially when I was upset about something on Wednesday nite.  The activities were loads of fun.  I just wish that it hadn't rained the 2 times that we were supposed to go swimming.

If I could revisit one time in my life, it would have to be when I was a counselor at camp summit the summer of 2001. I think about that summer and how it changed my life. Going into camp that summer I only had two pairs of shorts a couple of cut off t-shirts and one pair of boots. My car was overheating so very bad that I barely made it to the camp. It was a quite desperate time for me to find some meaning to my life. oops, cant finish I got to go. will continue later.

But I really would like to thank Krysta and my mom they really pushed me into going and I am so glad they did! I can't wait to come back this next summer.

Hey what's up?? I worked at Camp Summit in the summer of 2003. I was in Choctaw cabin. Camp Summit has an unbelievable full time staff working for them. Brad and Lisa have great hearts. That's one good reason the camp is so successful. I can't begin to explain my emotions or feelings when I think of the kind of person I am this day because of Camp Summit. It inspires you to believe in so much because of some great people. I loved every minute of it and am looking forward to another great summer in 2004.

I had an absolute blast this past June @ camp. I really loved my week there. There were several people there this year that made the week really enjoyable for me. There was one in particular counselor who shall remain nameless that I had a blast meeting & I'm fortunate enough that we still keep in touch via email after camp. I'm excited that for the 2nd time since I started attending Camp Summit in 1999 that I will be able to attend the weekend session @ the end of this month. I haven't been able to attend since the first year ---- 1999.

this summer (03) was the best summer of my life. I worked as a counselor for choctaw (the only cabin to be in). I had the time of my life and the things that I learned from all of my friends (the campers and my fellow counselors) is something that I could never forget. Everyone at camp was so good to me and they will all be seing alot more of me, and I can't wait to come back in the summer of 04. CAMP SUMMIT ROCKED IN 03! WEEEEE READY! CHOCTAW'S ON THE WAR PATH!

Peace out Brett, Andrew, Royce, Mark, and Sally I love you all.

CampSummit changed my life!! It all started with a weekend session in OCT 97. I volunteered for the weekend for credit towards a college class, and I have not been the same since! I worked summer 98 (KIOWA), as well as individual weeks in99, 01, and 02. Even though I have a full time job now, I just cant get away from the joy of Camp Summit. I cant wait for summer 2003 to get here! I see my time at camp as a vacation away from my regular routine, and an awesome time with awesome people!

Camp Summit is the best place on earth!  I worked as a counselor for the first time this past summer, and just had to come back to volunteer in October and it was the best thing I could have ever done with my time.  My life has changed because of all the wonderful campers who all touched my life greatly. (and counselors like Christa!)  I am thankful for the great opportunity to offer my service, but actually gain so much more in return.  Camp Summit is truly my favorite place on earth!  I can't wait till Summer '03! KIOWA '02 ROCKS!  I love Ya'll!!
