What Parents are Saying
“Every year, my daughter comes home from camp happy and glowing and with a sense of confidence and independence. She purposely does not request cabin buddies because she loves the feeling of going in and meeting all new kids in a place where she’s confident that she is physically and emotionally safe. Every year, I’m nervous for my normally shy girl, and every year when I pick her up, I’m so glad she got the experience.” — Dava Kaitala, parent

“Yes, my daughter came home and has sworn off TV for the rest of the summer…lol. She didn’t want to come home.” — Sam Naioti, parent

“We found this camp via an internet search and WOW!! I wish we had known about it years ago!!! Our son loves it and can’t wait to go again for his 3rd year.” — Melody Goolsby, parent
