Comments from Parents “It's really hard to describe in words the positive impact that Night Eagle had on Woodland Wisp. He came home grounded, happy and older. He came home with a renewed sense of community and caring, having had great experiences that were totally his. The counselors this summer were extraordinary and each one generously imparted a unique piece of himself in our son. “As a mother, I am deeply grateful that there is a place like Night Eagle, a place in the wilderness where men and boys can be themselves in all of their glory -- a place where it is okay to be quiet, peaceful, inquisitive, thoughtful and a place where it is okay to be wild and free and humorous and spirited! A place where all kinds of masculinity, in community and individually, are honored and modeled. Woodland Wisp resonated with the Native American traditions and rituals and this summer's camp for him truly marked a rite of passage. “The entire two-week experience was a perfect fit for Woodland Wisp. The camaraderie, reverence and mentoring that he received from other boys and men was life-affirming. He wants to come back to Night Eagle again and again and again. Thank you for all that you both do to make Night Eagle such an uplifting, inspiring and fun place of the heart for boys and men.” - A. Heitmann (CT) “Blue Bison feels like he fits in at Night Eagle like nowhere in his life! He’s most definitely planning to return - in fact he says he plans to return as long as he possibly can - Night Eagle is his home away from home!” - J. Lew-Smith (VT) “Morning Mist has formed a strong connection to Night Eagle - he loved his stay and is committed to coming back. I believe it nurtures his best qualities and challenges him to grow and strengthen the places he is challenged. As a parent, I could not be more pleased with his experience at Night Eagle and support his wish to return 100%. Expect our sign-up soon!” - L. Poulsen (VT) “Panther Smiles absolutely loved Night Eagle! He made friends and discovered that (in his words) 'You can be popular without being cool.' He will return for a longer session next summer!” “Our boys were in love with the world upon their return from Night Eagle. They have always loved nature and getting dirty and exploring, but at Night Eagle they were able to enjoy a level of immersion that was satisfying and the right balance of challenge and safety. We felt (feel) blessed to have had Morning Rain and Eagle Dance as our sons counselors. They each displayed a level of kindness, compassion, and tact with our boys. We are planing to send Sunburst Bear and White Hawk for four weeks in 2009.” J. Ligon (TX) “Thank you for giving David a memory that will last a lifetime. Since he returned from Night Eagle he seems more content with life in general.”
- J. Stearns (VT)
“We are very pleased. We learn a little more about Aidan's experience (and a little more about survival) every day. The main difference we've noticed in him is more of an attitude of gratitude, which is lovely, and a bit more willingness to do chores when asked. We discussed his spotty work ethic with Woodland Esker when we dropped him off, and clearly the daily chore period had the desired effect. “I think you'd get a kick out of hearing him quote Arctic Arrow at appropriate moments in conversations. Seems like acting honorably is the main theme. You have a great deal of power in your hands with Night Eagle. Aidan has always had a built-in desire to do the right thing, and in these formative years, I think Night Eagle will set that in stone. Thank you for that.” - L. J. Bridwell (CT) “This camp is very special and unique. The boys are able to explore and challenge themselves in a safe and supportive environment. Counselors are absolutely well selected, with specific skills and knowledge to bring to the experience.” - C. Shaw (MA) “I appreciate the great letters from the counselors describing Forest Son’s summer at Night Eagle. They tell me a lot more about how he’s doing than I get from his short letters.” - C. Chickos (NC) “We noticed a maturing in Shares the Heart that’s hard to define in words but was clearly a result of the experiences at camp. Thank you.” - L. Rickert (VT) |
