“R.M. Pyles Camp made a positive influence in my life, and has become just as important as my family, friends, and school. Most importantly believe in yourself, believe that there is hope. In order to be successful in life, you have to follow these steps. The things I have learned from Pyles Camp will help me in life and in obtaining a job. Nothing is given you, you have to work for it and earn everything you get.”
— Wally Camper '13
