We did many fun and exciting projects and experiments. We learned about ways to save the environment and how to use alternative energy sources.

  • The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were... nice and interesting.
  • If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could... expand
Ways to make it better!
  • My experience would have been better if... we had better materials.
  • If I ran this organization, I would... provide lunch
  • In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are... advertising
  • One thing I'd also say is that... other people should try it.

MY ROLE:
I was a Client Served & I was a camper. I used alternative energy sources to power vehicles.

It was fun and had a lot of building involved. There were fun activities and games. A lot of the stuff we did related to alternative energy and fuel. I learned a little-not lots, but a little.

The Great!
  • What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is... building a vehicle using an energy source other than fossil fuel. I used solar panels.
  • The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were... fun, good at their job but in a fun way, and generally kept the kids under control.
  • If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could... build a nice camp in a nice building so we're not just outside all the time. It could provide food that is good for the environment and has less packaging. It could buy materials that are more environmentally friendly.
Ways to make it better!
  • My experience would have been better if... the camp had shorter hours--I don't like long long hours. Also, if it were in a climate controlled building. It was hot outside
  • In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are... how the counselors have to deal with campers they haven't met before. That must have been hard.

MY ROLE:
I was a Client Served & I am 11 years old. I was a camper at Alternative Energy Vehicle camp.
