Camp Ton-A-Wandah has always been like a home away from home to me. It’s just that feeling you get when the gates open up and you see the rays of sunlight glistening on the lake. Behind all of its beauty, there is a very strong sense of comfort that fills your heart when you look at it. Camp Tonawandah has provided me with so many opportunities, smiles, memories, and so many amazing people. I can’t even begin to describe how thankful I am for all of the bonds that TAW has created, and how many life lessons it has taught me. Tonawandah was so special this summer because it was my place of escape. It gave me a breath of fresh air and a way out of reality. I was able to reunite with such special people and return to the best place on earth. All of these things are more than I could ever ask for, and it is such a blessing that I am able to be writing this. I can’t thank the TAW staff enough for providing me such a special place that will be a part of me forever.
