We are very happy that you've reached this page!
As Logan stormed out of the classroom with his feet stomped heavily, the camp counselor standing outside asked "Are you upset?" "Yes, I'm very upset," he replied. The camp counselor asked again "Something unpleasant happened? What would you like to do now?" Logan answered, "I want to go sit meditation." And surprisingly, Logan actually went to the Peaceful Pines Hall to sit, meditate, and calm himself down!
Just imagine how happy you would be if your kid were able to calm down as Logan did! That was a true story that happened at one of our camps to a boy camper who resisted the practice at first but then changed his attitude on the 5th day of camp through the practice of meditation.
In the spirit of helping our next generation, we would like to launch our Camp Care Campaign again, please consider BYA on your donation list. Your contribution to our Camp Care Campaign will help us to have the financial means to create more of these inspiring stories to benefit our teenagers and young children, who nowadays are dwelled in a world of confusion from abundant media information and technology but very little spiritual and moral support.
