The Atlanta Journal-Constitution launches its debut Video Personal Journey, a short documentary film about 11-year-old Bronco Reese of Woodstock who underwent a heart transplant two years ago and goes on his first overnight camp this summer at Camp Twin Lakes.

On his first day at Camp Twin Lakes Bronco Reese wastes no time enjoying his independence running across the bunks in his cabin during a friendly squirt gun battle.
