Beautiful Place, Racist and Bully Owners. Very Traumatizing Experience
Let's me first say, I will never forget my 4 summers at Wohelo. I made tremendous friends and a lifelong love of nature. In general, it is a fantastic experience to be able to spend a summer without electricity, swimming, sailing, camping and doing outdoors activities everyday. Now, I will get to the point of why I have sought to share my story. It was not until my young adulthood that I realized that I experienced indubitable racial discrimination and bullying on the part of the owners of the camp. I was one of 3 people of color at the entire camp--as a child I did not notice this. As a 14 year old, I was relentlessly bullied and harassed by Quincy and never had a clue as to why. I was accused of bullying other girls, when I knew that this had not happened. I look back on my experience with mixed feelings, because it was a beautiful place, while the owners of the camp were adult bullies. If you value diversity and safety, this is definitely not a place to send your child.
