I have always enjoyed Campausable because they have good food, a lot of fun stuff to do, and good spiritual lessons. God has blessed Campausable greatly. I think everybody should go to summer camp. Thank you Campausable staff for all you do and thank you God for helping the staff make Camp a better place and to help us understand and know you better.

Camp is probably one of the best things that has every happened to me. Tons of my best memories were made there, from tube wars with my fellow cabinmates to shooting a bow-and-arrow. The spiritualness (?) of the place is also amazing. Whenever I visit Camp Au Sable I find myself becoming closer to God than ever that year (including [unfortunately] at church). The people there are also extremely friendly. I find myself not wanting to use electronics. Being a video game addict, that is extremely awesome. The reason tat I’m an addict is that my mind feels that there is nothing (fun) left to do. At camp, that’s exactly the opposite. There’s not a moment when there isn’t something fun and exciting to do (you CAN make cleaning the cabin fun and exciting).
Overall, Camp Au Sable is where I want to be all the time, with the exception of Heaven. It is to spiritual and fun at the same time that you are overwhelmed and cannot help but accept the message. I hope that everyone who reads this and goes to camp next time (campers and staff alike) will remember this and choose to become even closer to God. And, maybe, if they don’t have that special bond yet, that they will at least give it a shot.

I had been to Camp Au Sable as a camper and absolutely loved it! One summer during college - Elder Rilea’s (sp)last year. I was a camp counselor. I LOVED working at camp! It was so fun being a counselor! Sean Rau was my cabin mate, and I acted in a play “Sunny and the Soup Kitchen?” Steve and Dave Yeagly were in charge of skits that summer, Steve was boys director, Keven Brown was in the play too, and Ed (?) and Glen (?) were on water front . . . anyway it was such a special time. It was great fun to serve the campers, but it was great bonding time for the staff too.

If you ever get the chance to work at camp be sure to cherish it! Those are some very special times. My husband Ed and I have been back and volunteered two different summers, one to help with roofing when our kids were little, and another when I had the privilage of teaching baking for one week during teen camp.

We have moved to Wyoming now, and miss Camp Au Sable greatly.

A true treasure!

I remember going to camp it was fantastic every year my best friend Laura and I would run to the horse coral so we could make sure we got signed up. Flash was the favorite horse I have pictures of me riding that horse. The cabin was a blast with our friends all laughing. The canoe trip made us all sore. I loved every minute of being at camp. The only thing i did not like was on the ride home smelling Laura’s shoes that had stepped in horse manure.HAHA

I went to camp for my first year this year after my great grandmother recommended it for my little brother. I wanted to go and our parents signed both of us up. We just couldn’t wait to go. Finally the week came and I was excited as ever. I was signed up for Digital Photography and Archery. Being at camp brought me closer to God and it was an experience I could never forget!!

My memories of camp represent some of the best moments of my childhood. While it’s true that I had an amazing family which consisted of wonderful parents as well as taxing but fiercely loyal brothers, camp filled a wonderful hole in my heart. I didn’t know all of this at 8 years of age of course. In fact, my first year was quite interesting to say the least. As my parents drove down the road which lead to camp, my mind was a blur of thoughts and worries. They were going to leave me at this place for a whole week! How would I survive! Would they feed me? The fire of my imagination fed the apprehension. When I got out of the car, my legs seemed to shake under me. I was so nervous! Then I heard a tall man approach and a big voice bent down to me on my level and said “Welcome to camp Trevor!” I won’t say that was the end of my concern. Still, it represented the first inkling to me that I would have an amazing time and would come away with treasured memories. It was the one place where my abilities were emphasized over my disabilities. I am a person of many talents and interests. Yet many times in the ordinary world, my total blindness from birth is often seen as my most visible trait. For one week out of the year, I knew that was not an issue for the majority of people around me.
I am not an evangelical literal believer in the word of God. Still, the counselors and staff made sure to impress upon us their very sincere, real devotion to Christ and his power in their lives. I came away with a profound respect and a very real hope that future generations of children (both blind and sighted) could experience those peaceful, fun moments which shaped me during some of the most crucial periods of my childhood.
