I'd like to say, "Thank you", for showing my daughter a wonderful time at camp! It's all she can talk about. She begging to come back in August. She has even said that she wants to do all the week's next summer. Even her attitude changed, it's much more positive now. She's never been a true outdoor kid until now. So again, Thank you! and she will be back.

All the camp leaders did their best to make sure everyone had fun. Safety was definitely important and it showed. What a wonderful week the kids had. We felt very comfortable with the whole operation and we thank you for the wonderful week. Now all the parents want to go to camp and have fun too!

Nick LOVED the zip line and adventure park. The counselors were, in his words, AWESOME. I appreciated that the kids were automatically made to feel comfortable and I gather they got an immediate sense of being able to trust the counselors which I think makes the separation from their parents a lot easier.

The counselors were awesome and helped my daughter through "scary" parts of the zip line. They were so helpful and super friendly. Even when a strong storm came through and the kids were on the river, they pulled over on an island and made a shelter for the kids, by flipping over the rafts! A+

I think your counselors are worth their weight in gold! The kids had so just as much fun with the counselors as they did with their friends!
