From the Executive DirectorFrom the Executive DirectorFrom the Executive DirectorFrom the Executive Director
I want to again thank all those people who continue
to support the camp. It is gratifying in these
challenging times to receive the assistance we
require to offer children the chance to be part of a
fun, supportive and welcoming community.
We, like many others, have continued to make
adjustments to weather these stormy times. We
have drastically slashed our already lean budget.
We are finding ways to stretch dollars further than
we thought they could be stretched. We are
seeking out new partnerships and actively
recruiting interns and volunteers to help expand our
capacity to serve children. And, rest assured, while
tightening our belts, we have not in any way
sacrificed the quality of our programming.
We continue to push ourselves to improve what we
offer the campers in our care. This summer we
served as a pilot site for Camp2Grow, a national
American Camp Association teen leadership
program with a focus on promoting environmental
stewardship.
We also continue to assess ourselves to see what
we can do to increase the benefits to our campers.
We were one of the pilot sites for the Marion County
Commission on Youth’s Quality Counts program
assessments. Thanks to a grant from Lilly
Endowment we are assessing our youth leadership
program with the intent to strengthen what we
provide in that program area.
Looking to 2010, it is vitally important that we get
the message out to the community about the role
Jameson Camp plays in the lives of so many
children. We know the good work we do, we hear
from the kids and their parents and others, but
more people need to know about us. This is our call
to action. We encourage all our friends and
supporters of Jameson Camp to join us in helping to
spread the word about what the camp has to offer
both as a youth serving agency and a retreat center.
Please encourage your friends and associates to
learn about Jameson Camp as we strive to build a
wider network.

We held our fourth annual Jubilee on September 26th with our
presenting sponsor Citizens Energy Group. This year we held
more of a camp-like event with a variety of games being of-
fered and inviting children to attend with their families. Every-
one had a good time, some new people were introduced to
the camp and yes, we even raised some money for the camp.
Thank you to all the people who helped make the Jubilee pos-
sible.
Our appreciation goes to: our emcees, Todd Wallace from
WRTV and Dave Smiley from the Smiley in the Morning radio
program; all the Jameson board members; former board
members; volunteers; our generous event sponsors; dona-
tors of auction items; the restaurants who donated their time
and many many delicious treats; Dean Metcalf and the other
band members who hit the right notes all through the Jubilee;
and special thanks to Lori Counts who was lead staff on the
event. Extra special recognition has to go to our two youth
leader representatives who spoke at the Jubilee. Youth Lead-
ers, Chris Buchanan and Destiny Nicely, volunteered to tell
their personal account of their Jameson experience and the
impact it has had on their lives. They both did a fantastic job
and received standing ovations for their heartfelt and often
moving accounts. An excerpt from Destiny’s comments are
included below:

We tend to focus on the positive impact Jameson
Camp has on its campers but the experience has
also made a lasting impression on many of the
counselors who have worked here. Recently, we
received two accounts one from Ryan Warren who
was a counselor here a few years ago, and another
from Joanne Fox who was here… well, let’s say more
than a few years ago. And then we share a note
from one this year’s first time counselors.
“Essential Work”“Essential Work”“Essential Work”“Essential Work”
From Ryan Warren
At different points in our lives we are in different
positions to do different things. My first experience
with Jameson Camp was in the summer of 1996.
Hired as a counselor, I was instantly exposed to the
extreme joys and equally extreme hardships of
camp life, thrown together with a group of strangers
to spend a summer working with a group of camp-
ers, strangers also, yet a bit more imaginative. It’s
hard to explain who we were - this ragtag group of
counselors and campers.
We came from varied backgrounds with experi-
ences and stories to match. We were asked to bring
our strengths to the forefront of all that we did.
Fears were not to be simply accepted, but they were
to be questioned, challenged, and confronted –
never alone, always together. We had to sing. We
didn’t have to be best friends, but we couldn’t be
enemies. We could agree to disagree. Campers
learned to lead, counselors learned to follow. We
smiled and we laughed and we learned very quickly,
that we were in this together.
As the years have gone by, I have come to realize
that Jameson Camp provides what few other places
can or do. It is a place that asks that you fully repre-
sent yourself while providing the space and encour-
agement for others to do so as well, being open to
their unique qualities and beliefs while sharing
yours. It is learning not just to get along, but to find
common elements to which we all can and must
contribute. The campers know that they are valued
and that they can, that they must, contribute. It is
essential work that must be supported. And, while I
am no longer in a position to contribute as a coun-
selor, I have recently made the decision that my
support will come through my time and my finances
as I am able, and my commitment to Jameson
Camp is stronger than ever.

“I am forever grateful”“I am forever grateful”“I am forever grateful”“I am forever grateful”
From Joanne Fox
When I was 8 years old, I was referred to Julia
Jameson Nutrition Camp and Theodore Potter Fresh
Air School. My 2 sisters and I were considered to be
underprivileged and nutritionally challenged. I
spent every summer from 8 to 17 years old at
camp. My mother could not afford to pay for us to
attend camp and with each visit she would meet
with the Director of Camp, Miss Margaret Weadick,
to discuss her finances (or the lack of). Some kind
soul financed our camping summers.
I was a camper from 8 to 13 yrs old. When I was
14, I “graduated” to cook’s helper. The next year, I
was “promoted” to counselor – first in the cottage
and then into the main building. Through the years,
I developed a great respect and fondness for
Miss Margaret and she became my first role model.
She exhibited an example of good leadership , a
good work ethic and a pleasant, happy disposition –
and all those strengths appealed to me. Her ability
to influence certain people and situations im-
pressed my young mind and I decided at a very
young age, that I wanted to be like her.
It took many years to realize that hope – but gradu-
ally through the years, I worked hard and found the
position that allowed me to utilize the strengths she
had taught. I began work at Regenstrief Institute
as an administrative assistant when the Institute
had only 10 employees. Through the years, the In-
stitute grew and so did my position and influence
and I was promoted to Assistant to the Director/
Administrator. The Institute grew to over 125 fac-
ulty/staff under my administrative reign and I was
able to use the strengths I had learned at camp
years ago.
I am forever grateful.
“Discovering My Strengths”“Discovering My Strengths”“Discovering My Strengths”“Discovering My Strengths”
From a 2009 counselor
I came to camp thinking I knew why I was here. I
wanted to help kids by giving them a good experi-
ence and sharing my enthusiasm for nature and
life. Gradually though, I’m coming to realize what I
get from the experience. I am finding my footing
and becoming more confident in myself, discovering
strengths (and a few weaknesses) that I wasn’t sure
I had. Jameson is still about the campers for me
but I underestimated its positive impact on the
counselors as well.”

Jameson is a year round youth development center. We are still busy serving children and youth and others long
after the summer ends. Since summer camp we have hosted fourteen school and other youth field trips out for
outdoor education and challenge course programming. Our year round youth leadership program is very active in
the non-summer months.

Grant for Outdoor EducationGrant for Outdoor EducationGrant for Outdoor EducationGrant for Outdoor Education We are pleased to announce a grant to Jameson Camp
from the R.B. Annis Family Foundation to support our
outdoor education program. A growing emphasis of the
camp is to utilize our 100 acres of woods and meadows
within the city to introduce children to the wonders of
nature and pleasures of being outdoors.
In 2010, we intend to convert 17 acres of our property
that had been leased to a local farmer back to nature to
be used as an outdoor lab by our campers and local
school children. We have formed a partnership with
Wayne Township schools that would result in thousands
of fourth, fifth and sixth graders helping with the
restoration project and observing its changes over time.
Thank you to the Annis Foundation and others for
helping us to connect kids with nature for another year.
