Quotes from the happy parents of even happier campers

“Micah was very resistant, did not want to go to camp and once we got there, he did not want to stay after we left: we were worried that he would be miserable. We were extremely happy to hear that camp was fun (except for the island trip) and that he definitely wants to return next year. He made lots of new friends and he enjoyed learning about screening.” Micah Ryan's Mother

“Every year for seven years, our daughter has cried when camp ended. The inner peace, special friends, and enlarged sense of self, all supported by gentle Quaker wisdom, have demonstrated the rich experience she has received at Friends Camp.” Mary Hackett – Parent

"Ray and I would like to thank you for providing such a positive and enriching camp experience. Chelsea had a fantastic time! But more than that, she came away feeling more confident in herself and proud of her accomplishments. She believed that people 'accepted me of the way I am'. What a major feat for a girl that has always struggled mightily in social situations! Because Chelsea felt successful and supported, we plan to send her back next year and hopefully, one of her sibling as well. Thanks again for your efforts and hard work." Lesley Sadler

“I just wanted to write and say how much our daughter enjoyed her camp - she simply loved it. She was 'somewhat scared' still of the Wareporky (she was most annoyed that we both started laughing madly at the mere mention of the creature!).......but she definitely wants to go back. It was a really good experience for her - and for me. Thanks for running a great camp.” Ru Freeman
