    Ahhh, Woodward. My…read moreson and I just retuned from our 5th year. It has become our Mecca every summer. He for the skateboarding program and I for the volunteer parent staff. I have so many things to say about this place and yet can't even think where to begin. Woodward has numerous programs: Skateboarding, BMX, Inline skating, scooter, snowboarding, gymnastics and cheer (and soon Mountain Biking). The facilities for each discipline are world class. The instructor are world class (and in many instances, literally, they are WORLD CLASS and rated so in the world). The staff and directors are so solid and concerned for the welfare and quality of programs for the kids. There is really nothing that I come away with that is negative. The kids that come into WW for the summer are given the opportunity to learn their sport but also they are given the chance to live within their own borders and decisions (they have no clue how many parental eyes are there keeping them safe). From the youngest campers (7) to the oldest (18). They come out at the end of the week better, not just as athletes but as humans. This past week, a young man (7) who's dad was also a parent volunteer, made the decision, by himself, to try out for the Mini-Mega ramp. The drop-ins for this ramp start at 25 feet and go up to 31. It is immense to me at 6'2". I cannot imagine what it looks like to a 3 foot tall, 7 year old. It was his decision on his own terms. He passed the test and was allowed to ride the biggest ramp in camp and possibly the east coast. The growth from that one choice is amazing. He was surrounded by positive people who gave him the freedom to choose and then given all the support necessary in a safe environment. This is where men and women are made. Not in the hovering of parents but in the ability to make a life choice and have the support of those around you (again, in a safe environment). This is only one of myriad stories. Woodward is special. It's our home-away from our home-away from home. My son lives for his week away and hopefully will be a Junior Counselor next year becoming part of the tradition of a storied and grand place where kids fly, independence is granted and celebrated, and lifelong friendships are made. I cannot say enough about this place. It's not perfect but perfection is overrated. My only complaint is that at some point my son will age out and I will not be able to go for my one week during the summer to see my WW family, skate poorly and enjoy the camp and the strange and wonderful town of Millheim PA. It will rank as one of the worst things that will ever happen to me. If you can send your kid, then you should. It will be one of the greatest times of their lives and they will talk about it forever. Once Woodward, always Woodward. Til next year I will continue to dream of shredding around the bowl and down the snake run. Only 358 days til we return.
