Hi Kristin,
Sounds like church camp was a really wonderful and meaningful time in your life - awesome!  I went to church camp for a couple of years growing up.  And it was good.  I think that whole thing of seeing God in a different place, outside of church was a really good thing for me.  More recently - a couple of years ago I attended a three day retreat.  In this case, it was inside a church building (we ate, played, had lessons, slept,etc, etc - there).  This experience was one of the most powerful moments in my life - and really my first very deep and personal connection with the Holy Spirit.  It was moving beyond anything I could have imagined.  I am forever changed because of these three days.  Sleeping on cots, in a room with about 10 other men, in the heat and humidity of the summer.  So worth it, for my soul.  

Kristin, I'm so happy that Q is getting to experience these times at camp now, and that your times there provide meaning in your life yet today.
