When I think of this camp my heart literally hurts. I love this place more than anything in this world. Camp is my home... not even my home away from home but my home! I feel like my true self is brought out when I am here. Camp Bellaleo has helped me become the person I am today. It has taught me to be open and strong. I thank this place far more than I can even express with words. I love everyone here and I only hope that each and every camper will leave this place with as much passion and love as I have for Bellaleo. One more thank you and that's to the Staff. You are who make this camp what it is. Thank you for coming back to us! It wouldn't be the same without you. You have made our years here unforgettable and enjoyable and we are truly thankful for that.
Love, Zara (15-year-old camper, England)
Hey Jay,
I congratulate you and your family for all the dedication and hard work that has gone into Bellaleo since 1992. All of the positive changes that you've introduced has evolved Bellaleo into a fantastic place where children and young adults can have fun; while learning to respect each other and the environment. I truly believe that campers and staff leave Bellaleo with crucial lessons learned that has an impact on the individual and thus reaches out into society as well.
Take Care, Lisa (alum)
