Tikkun Olam quote book part 2

" A day for campers and staff to come together and improve camp. It gives people the opportunity to bond over something they may not have before" - Jacki Wahlquist, waterfront specialist

"putting our differences and individuality aside to ascend to a higher level of community to reach a common goal" -Becca Baum, visiting contributor and former staff member

"Even though I was never in tusc, I feel like the place I'm trying to restore means a lot to so many people so I wanted to try my hardest to fix it up so it can be the most special place possible for all of those people." - Gabrielle Meyer, Seneca staff

"(the purpose if Tikkun Olam is to) solve problems bigger than yourself" - Ben Richardson, middle Mohican participant in becoming a C.O.W

"It's a very special day. People view this place as a sacred home, and its great seeing everyone putting in their best effort towards a common goal to improve the place we all love. It is very powerful." - Joshua Sham, Tuscarora unit head

"(the purpose of Tikkun Olam is to) help our community and make it better, and help future generations have what we have." - Samara Henning, oldest Onondaga

"This is my first Tikkun Olam day. So far it's really cool. Getting all different people to come together and fix a place they all love and it's so nice to see everyone come together. I've never been a part of anything to this extent and I can't wait to see how it turns out." - Kevin Snyder, tennis specialist

"Tikkun Olam day means we are making camp better than it already is, because it's fantastic." Noah Salomons, Tuscarora camper
