My Transformation |  My name is Theo and I am 16 years old. I’ve been in Rawhide for 14 months. During my time at Rawhide, my three best memories would have to be playing basketball, skiing at Nordic Mountain, and Silver Birch winter camp.
The two most influential people at Rawhide that have helped me would be Brian Shay and Pat Stiller. Both were resident instructors in the Gillespie house. There were many reasons why each has been influential to me. Brian had many different ways of communicating with you that was like no one else. Pat because he and I had a lot of similar things we liked to do in our free time. These were things like fishing, hunting, working out, shooting hoops, and just being in the woods.
I think the programs at Rawhide are very effective because being here forced me to slow down, and process the things in my life that got me here in the first place. It has also helped me work on the things that will eventually get me home.
During my time at Rawhide I’ve come to know the Lord more and Rawhide has helped me get more involved in my faith. After Rawhide, I plan to join the military or go into graphic design. I am very thankful for all Rawhide has done for me.
~Theo
