"I count those summers as the best time of my life. I made deep friendships that I still hold today, and learned many things about life and people that I would never have otherwise experienced. I can't imagine how different my life would be if I hadn't of had that time."
- Attendee 1994-1999.

"As a Depute Head Teacher of a high school in Scotland, I often wonder how I ended up here. I realize, on reflection, my time spent working at a center for individuals with special needs played a major role in where I am now. Having the opportunity to work with such wonderful children I decided to become a teacher; a career I thoroughly enjoy to this day." Staff 1996.
