My name’s Yvonne, and I went to LID camp the summer of my sophomore year. I didn’t know what to expect, but I loved meeting new people there with amazing personalities and interesting backstories. Over the course of five days, we did so many activities that required teamwork and communication, and gradually, I became more attached to the people that I figured I wouldn’t see again.

Besides the bonding events, I really enjoyed the workshops that were hosted. Between the college prep workshop and family based workshops, it gave me more of an insight to what I wanted for my life, and listening to my counselors’ talk about their experiences in school helped me better understand what I should do while I’m still in school and while I’m preparing for college.
