What Past Staff Say:

"I knew that when I came, the experience of being a Counselor would be good, but when I look back, all I can say is that despite all the hard effort, and BECAUSE of it, this summer has been the experience above all in my lifetime."

"I feel that this summer has been a very worthwhile experience, I've had a great time and at the same time learned much about working with special populations. It's been a very rewarding summer and I think I've also learned much about myself and where I'm headed. I'll take many precious memories with me."

"I could not have found a better camp to work at this summer, the camp, the staff, and especially the KIDS made this a very special summer for me."

"Overall I loved my summer at camp, it was one of the greatest, most rewarding experiences of my life. I'll never forget it. I'm glad I had the opportunity to work here."
