Camp
I never really knew what I wanted to do with my life. ...
Then one day a friend of mine asked me to come and work with her at a camp near her
home in Oakland, California. ...
When I was told the ages of the people attending the camp I was intimidated because I was so much younger than everybody else that would be present during this week. This is not a normal camp that one might attend for one week during the summer; however, this is a camp for adults. The people who attend this camp have mental defects, which cause learning, emotional, and physical problems for them. ... As soon as I found out who would be attending the camp I started to feel a bit superior, because I was “regular”. ... Well, I was wrong and quickly overcame my feeling of superiority and fell in love with this unique camp. ...
The camp is called Down Home Ranch and as I would later find out, the name had a great deal of meaning to the camp. The camp is one of the only one of its kind around. The campers must meet certain requirements to stay at the camp.
