Celebrate your daughter’s birthday
We recently received a letter from an ALC family with a fabulous idea that was too good not to share…
“My daughter, in true 11 year old form, has been talking a lot about her upcoming birthday party. Day to day her thoughts of her 12th birthday celebration change: a trip to the amusement park with a few special friends, a soccer match with her teammates, a movie night and sleepover, etc., etc. … I look at my daughter and marvel how quickly the time has gone and delight in what a wonderful young woman she is becoming. After three summers at Alford Lake Camp, I can’t deny the role camp has played shaping the confident, kind and happy daughter I have. She has soaked in the values of ALC.. community, kindness and friendship. These values have become part of who she is at school, in her activities and sports and in our community at home. I see her reaching confidently for challenges and embracing new experiences. Additionally, I recognize what a huge impression the counseling staff has made on her life: their educational paths and enthusiasm for their chosen activities at camp… how else would my daughter have learned to love to sail???” I was thinking about the “big event” and wondering what special gift I should give her to mark her last year as a “pre-teen”. … And then it came to me, I give her the gift of camp… another summer at Alford Lake…. please enroll her in ALC 2010!!
What a wonderful way to celebrate a special girl’s special day with the gift of enrollment to ALC 2010.
