My favorite part of camp are the water activities. 

• If you could describe Camp Kudzu in one word, what would that word be?

If I could describe camp in one word is exhilarating!

My favorite memory from camp is, well, there are so many. If I had to choose, I would choose the time I joined my counselor and she went flying from the blob. 

• What’s the most helpful or interesting thing that you learned at camp?

The most helpful tip I learned from camp was to not focus on diabetes so much, and not let it define me.

I would only do the blob as my one activity.  

• What would you tell a potential camper about Camp Kudzu?

I would tell a potential camper to just have fun, it will be scary at first to go to a random place with random people but soon that random place will be your second home and those random people will be your second family.
