Horizon Highlight: Ember Beddingfield
Ember Beddingfield first attended Horizon Camp in 1993 when a friend, Kerri Sosnowski encouraged her to try it out." As she told me all about camp the one thing that stands out was the joy and excitement in her voice and I could tell it was going to be special." Ember attended camp every year until 1999 and then took a break to raise her children. She came back to camp in 2016 and will be bringing her son with her this year.
     
Ember served as Co-Chair of the Recruitment Committee with Mark and Matt Schreiner from 1996 to 1998. She was also a Team Leader from 1995 to 1999. One of Ember's favorite parts of camp is visiting with old friends and getting to make new friends too. She loves that everyone can be themselves in a supportive environment. "The other thing that I love about camp is that it challenges me to look at life differently and every year there is always something new for me to learn."
Outside of Horizon, Ember is a child/family licensed clinical professional counselor and works at the Diocese of Springfield as the Safe Environment Director. She is married and has three children, all of whom will be attending camp in the future. She enjoys running and has recently run in some 5K and 10K races. She is also very active in her church.
