Remi & Angela Bereola- 2020 Victory V. Lee Awardee Camp Parent Of the Year

Remi & Angela Bereola
Remi & Angela Bereola are the proud parents of Adanya (9) and Kaden (7) Bereola. As a family, they enjoy travel, learning, spending time in nature, playing games, and enjoying music. The kids love biking, making and discovery, creating arts and crafts, singing and dancing, and playing retro video games.
The Bereola family was initially drawn to Camp ANV’s mission of providing education and access to healthy food through urban farming. Upon enrollment in the 2019 summer camp, they were introduced to a broad range of new experiences, including farming, growing and preparing produce for meals, exploring different cultures, and weekly field trips, including a fun family camping excursion. As ANV was forced to pivot due to the pandemic, The Bereolas were particularly impressed by how they managed to create such a personal, engaging, and interactive experience for campers in a virtual setting. They were also richly blessed by the invitation to participate in the weekly Farm Fridays, which provided the unexpected benefits of soul care, healing, catharsis and community for their family in this time of pandemic, political turmoil, and social unrest.
