New Forever Friends

By Becca Wycoff, Bus 8 Participant

After coming together as a big unit for 23 days, I see how much this group really means to me. I did not know a lot of kids here because there are 2 different sessions at camp. We may not have met yet, but we all already had one thing in common, Camp Harlam. At the airport on the first day it was a little intimidating meeting the first session-ers because there are so many of them compared to second session. But, once we landed in Prague, I had already made so many new friends on the plane. As time went on, I realized how everyone is so sweet and nice. Our friendships have grown so much that it does not feel like we just met 3 weeks ago. I am so thankful for everyone on this trip and am so glad to call them my best friends.
