My Nonprofit Reviews

I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to the staff and volunteers at Camp OBR while attending a men's retreat arranged by TAPS (Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors) in July. Most of our group of 20 men, some very recently, lost our sons, one lost a father and another an uncle to military related deaths. I can honestly say that many of us, certainly myself, arrived to Camp with heavy hearts. Then we were greeted by some of the most amazing and empathetic staff and volunteers that anyone could ever hope to meet. You all took such great care of us from before dawn until well after dark. You became part of our healing process. I also want to pay you high compliments for your immaculate grounds, lodge, culinary center and the most comfortable cabins that I have ever stayed in throughout my life. Your team created so many memories as you shared your camp activities, quiet time and the culinary center and sent us home with a greater knowledge of preparation, smoking and grilling techniques. Going back to the beginning of my short note though, to me it is the team at Camp OBR that allowed me to take a week to feel, reflect and be comfortable in a space well set up to do that. I will forever remember your smiles and laughter, I witnessed your tears in our heavy moments and I will always look at you and remember the sea of humanity that you all are.
With Gratitude,
