“I have to admit the summers I spent at Camp Woodland were the best of my life. The experiences from those summers has shaped me in ways some of which I cannot even describe. I am so thankful to the Jordan family for running this program. I sincerely miss my Woodland summers and hope to send my own children one day. If I could share one piece of advice to parents thinking about this program for their children: please do it. Your child will gain a sense of independence and maturity that can only be fostered in an environment away from their parents. Your child will grow and develop a sense of adventure that will unveil opportunities previously clouded from their view. I would not be half the person I am today if I had not experienced both the joys and heartbreaks afforded to me by this Camp. I grew up in Chicago and now live in South Korea, but my true home is in the North Woods at Camp Woodland.”
