First of all, can anyone let me know if they have ever attended or are attending this year FCA Leadership Camp at NorthBay in North East Maryland? It eould be really nice to hear about it from someone who has been or know someone else who is going, even if I don't know them irl, just from ctf.
Also, this is my first time going somewhere where I know no one, and I'm nervous. I went to the same Christian camp (Camp Wright on Maryland's Kent Island) for 7 years, but now I'm too old, and so I'm switching camps, so I'm nervous about not knowing anyone, or even a lot about the camp. Even my first year at Camp Wright, I knew 3 people: 2 school friends in another cabin, and my sister was in my cabin. I don't know anyone at my new camp, so I'm really nervous about making friends. What do I do if everyone there already knows each other? Any advice?

be really willing to do new activities with different people. It works wonders, because you meet all kinds of people you might not normally meet just through your dorm. If someone's standing on the sidelines of something, looking a bit lost, a great thing to do is go over to them and start a conversation. The likelihood is that they're a first-timer too, and so are probably just as nervous as you are. Most of all, HAVE FUN!
