This was my son's first camp experience. There has not been a camp available for him to participate in and he has not had the opportunity. The camp was amazing, inclusive, and we didn't feel pressure to do an activity if it wasn't working for him in the moment. He had a wonderful time getting to socialize with friends and be around other kids his age.

I would recommend others to volunteer at Thurston County Inclusion because you get the opportunity to engage with children and teens that you may not spend time with frequently. You also get to learn about how to become your best self around others.

My child had so many positive interactions with the volunteers and campers. She was excited to attend each camp day and sad she missed out on two days. We had great conversations about all the different people she met and how much she enjoyed spending time with everyone. My daughter is very shy at first but because everyone was so welcoming and friendly it didn’t take her long to get comfortable.
