Tree Talk: Why Listen? by Bo Turnage (2024)

In his Tree Talk on Friday, Bo Turnage reflected on some of the moments from his camper years that seemed inconsequential at the time -- a story in a Chapel Talk about courage, a tense doubles final tennis match, a shared sunset with his expedition on top of Mt. Liberty -- but in fact resurfaced later in life, helping to guide him in tough moments and support those around him. His talk served as an important reminder that finding happiness and fulfillment through indirection by immersing yourself in the moment is just as important to our growth as sowing acts intentionally. Bo is in his second season as a counsellor, where he leads our tennis program and resides in Jackson.
