Camp Able - Where Acceptance Reigns
By Katherine Tuttle; Posted 7.16.09 on Marco Eagle

Camp Able had its genesis in Mississippi where Rev. Kyle Bennett, Rector of St. Mark’s Episcopal Church first worked at a week long summer camp for persons with disabilities.

“Working with kids with disabilities is where I cut my teeth and where I decided to become a priest. My understanding of God came from working with marginalized people,” said Bennett.

He worked there for a total of 20 years; the last five years he was the director. He missed this service when he came to Marco in 2005 and saw an opportunity within the Episcopal Diocese of Southwest Florida at the DaySpring Conference Center in Manatee County. He was given permission by the Bishop to try. The first camp was in 2007.
