Going Back to Camp
What if some of the most important lessons in life were learned at summer camp?
Going Back to Camp is a journey into the friendships, adventures, mistakes, laughter and unforgettable moments that shape us when we're young — and stay with us long after camp ends.
Join Dave MacKay and Wendy Chong as they go back to their years at summer camp and explore the lessons they carried into adulthood: belonging, friendship, compassion, fun, collaboration and leadership.
Through personal stories, honest conversations and plenty of laughs, Dave and Wendy explore why camp can have such a profound impact on young people — and what those experiences can teach all of us about building relationships, creating community, becoming leaders and living a more connected life.
Because sometimes you have to go back to camp to remember what really matters.
