Real Experiences

Don’t just take our word for it - this is just a snapshot of the amazing summers our participants have had, and the reasons they keep going back year after year.

Camp is a truly life-changing experience and there is no better way to finish it off than travelling the USA after with all your new camp mates! I have done this every summer and had an incredible time.

You are captivated by the surroundings and unplugged from the outside world. It’s an adventure inside a bubble that you never want to pop, full of lasting friendships and unforgettable memories.

Travelling after camp has enabled me to visit amazing places, such as two islands of Hawaii, New York, San Francisco and Los Angeles! I wouldn't have had the opportunity if it wasn't for Camp America.

Staff started camp with a mix of experience but none of that mattered. You are well trained and everyone supports each other creating a close-knit community like no other.

Camp America gave me an understanding of responsibility that I hadn’t experienced before. By the time I came home, I’d gained valuable leadership skills to take into future careers.
