Growing up as the youngest of four siblings in central New York, I was immersed in the simplicity and beauty of small-town life. Weekends were all about getting outdoors, playing sports, and spending time with family and friends. Whether we were hiking in the woods, riding bikes, sitting around a campfire, or casting lines in the nearby lake, there was always something fun to do. These experiences are valued parts of my upbringing and have shaped who I am today.

“Be the change you wish to see in the world.” – Mahatma Gandhi
This quote has always resonated with me, echoing through various seasons of my life. I was born and raised in central Pennsylvania, where my upbringing was decidedly more ‘rural’ than most. Summers were spent with cousins at my grandparents’ place, where slip-and-slide adventures down the hill and backyard campouts were the norm.

A Heartfelt Message from Derek Snyder

Family often shapes who we are and what we become. For me, I grew up as the youngest of four brothers. My dad was a farmer, and my mom was a homemaker (a full-time job with four boys). While we did not live on the farm, I spent most summers helping wherever needed. On a farm, there is always something that needs to be done – mowing, weed whacking, cleaning out containers – the list goes on. These were just some of the jobs that needed to be done during the “off-season”.

Renee’s Letter from the Heart

Oh, those precious memories of childhood! Everyone has them, and some are more precious than others. I was the middle child, but before you feel sorry for me, let me tell you: I was the only girl with an older and younger brother. Some might say I was a daddy’s girl, and they wouldn’t be wrong. Growing up, I lived on a dead-end street in Elk Township, New Jersey. We rode bikes and motorcycles, swung from Tarzan swings, swam in our pool, and played under the streetlight when the sun went down.

Amanda’s Letter from the Heart

Most of my childhood was spent barefoot, running around, making mud pies, riding bikes, and rollerblading up and down our street with the salty ocean breeze until the streetlights came on. For much of my life, I lived in New Jersey; just three miles from the beach. My summers were spent adorned with sunburned shoulders and cheeks (I can still hear my dad yelling at me to put on sunscreen), enjoying day trips to the beach, rides on the boardwalk, and eating ice cream cones and THE BEST pizza. I’m a Jersey girl through and through.
