Happy Campers

I wanted to thank you so much for such a fun and adventurous camp experience.  I really appreciate what you do for so many kids, including me.  On your camps, I always learn something new about myself and my physical and mental abilities.  The West Coast Camp was an amazing experience for me so thank you for giving me the opportunity to explore who I am and what I am capable of and how I can interact with others.”  Tristin

 

“Hi Jack:  Just wanted to say thanks to you and your staff for making Broc and Tom’s Kayak Camp such a huge success. When we picked them up at the ferry last weekend they were both bubbling over with enthusiasm and can’t wait to come back next year.  Every day since, Broc tells me he wants a kayak of his own and wants to teach me some of the skills he learned. This camp has really kindled a huge interest for him and we couldn’t be more pleased!”

 

“I’m gonna miss you two so much! I know I will look at nature in a different way now.  You made me learn and discover all about kayaking, intertidal life, and wicking.  I never had so much fun ever!!”   Astrid

 

 “My son, Jesse just came back from the surf camp. He told me all about it and just can’t wait to go back again. In other words; he loved it! I am very impressed too. A big THANK YOU! “  

 

I would like to thank you for a tremendous foundation your camps have built for me.  Thanks for your teaching, loving and camaraderie;  my time with you all has molded me into the young man I am now.  Four years at summer camp with you has transformed me from”little Max” with little confidence to Big Max (I am 6’4 now) who is nature-savvy, well rounded and leadership wielding.  The last leadership camp was just awesome for me.  I feel after years of camps I have graduated from the most amazing school in the world.  Thanks for igniting my passion for nature and teaching me to lead!”   Max O.  

 

"I could really not be any happier with that group and the leaders. Thank you for providing lifelong memories and incredible adventures in such a safe and inspiring way. You’re the best!" — Mel W.
