There, we run five programs—a youth camp, a family camp, an adult retreat center, an outdoor education initiative, and a camp offering free facility use to select groups—that together host over 27,000 people each year.

According to Lexi, working as a Singing Hills counselor has made clear to her about the type of leader she wants to be, "Be the counselor that cleans the cabin with them." Laugh when they laugh.

“The numbers tell us mental wellness is becoming a challenge in our culture. Our American systems and institutions aren’t able to keep up with the changes that are stressing people out," says David Rogers.
