What Starlight Means to Me…
By: Madison D., CA
Hi, my name is Madison Dratch and this is what Starlight means to me. Ever since I was 10 years old, I knew that Starlight was a place that I could call my home. I have made countless numbers of friends that have impacted my life in such a strong way.
One of my favorite memories at amp was when I was chosen to be Upper Senior Captain for Olympics. Being able to lead my team during that Olympic games was absolutely unreal. Know that I was the person that all of the camp looked to for guidance is a feeling that everyone should be able to experience. Not only has Camp Starlight made me more confident and strong, but it has also shaped my life and made me an overall better person. I couldn’t imagine what my life would be like if I didn’t go to Starlight. Camp is my home away from home, and I could spend the rest of my life here.
What does Starlight mean to you?
