Here’s what some of our camper families have to say…
“This is our child’s fourth summer at CBC and each year he seems to like it more and more. You have created a welcoming and supportive atmosphere. You also keep adding on new and innovative options for the campers. We are so pleased and impressed! ” – Parent GF ”
“On Family Fun Day, I just loved witnessing Starburst ‘nature time’, watching all the kids have time to do projects of their own choosing and just be out in the woods. Rachel Carson (author of A Sense of Wonder) is smiling down on you guys for sure!!” – Parent RP ”
“My kids loved the campfire cookout specialty camp. Something about the group clicked with them…Camp is not a comfortable or preferred activity but they have been going to summer camps in general since preschool. I can honestly say this was their best week ever.” – Parent HT ”
“My son had a wonderful time at the Quasar Camp! Thanks to all the counselors and staff – he wants to come back next year…” – Parent KH”
“My children LOVE their Camp Beech Cliff! I know they take so much more away from their summer experiences because of this wonderful camp. Both my children come home singing songs they have learned at camp. Many an evening they will begin a sentence with, ‘guess what I learned at camp today?’” – Parent MM ”
