Do you remember the camaraderie of your first girlfriends?  This is where you learned what worked socially.  You tested where you had influence and where you just didn't .  This set you on a path of social confidence. 

Since 1949, CGS has been dedicated to making a positive, meaningful impact on its visitors in the areas of personal identity, values, relationships, education and spirituality. Annually, over 14,000 children, youth, teens and families participate in a life-changing event at CGS. For me, personally, CGS has provided a offered me precious memories of my father, childhood girl friend and my own family's time for soaking up God's great outdoors.
