However, as the thousands who have attended Hazen throughout the years know, camp is so much more than that. As a result of the community formed during a summer session, you will gain experiences that your friends at home may not have. These positive experiences give you the confidence to excel in other parts of your life. Camp is a year-round education. A camp experience will bolster socialization skills, provide opportunities for leadership development and help you to achieve their full potential.
