Boys into Men May 01, 2007

reviewer: Maria Mulcahy from

| Deep Woods Camp is one of the last true adventure camps. It is a place where boys play, work, revel in their boyhood, challenge themselves in every conceivable way and come out not just stronger, not just more able, but more certain of who they are in the bigger picture. I think it's the unexplainable effect that nature has on us as human beings. I also give credit to the effect on boys after spending weeks at a time with a band of brothers.
My brother was a camper back in the 70s and he still talks about it being one of the best experiences of his life. He decided to give my son his first Summer at Deep Woods as a gift five years ago. In his mind it was something that absolutely HAD to happen for his nephew (my brother has only girls).
Each Summer my son comes home having made unbelievable strides both physically and emotionally. This year he is 17 and entering his 3rd year as a ranger. To my utter surprise and delight he has decided to use the proceeds from his very first job to pay his own way to camp this year. For such a thing to be his first priority speaks volumes about the person he is on his way to becoming and how important Deep Woods has been to him in that endeavor.
What a wonderful place. Kells (camp founder and director) deserves a standing ovation!
