What are last year's parents saying about Camp Roanoke?

Parents of campers in grades K-3

Parents of campers in grades 5-7

 

• My child has become more mature, independent. We felt we could contact camp administration any time and be heard.

 

• This is a great program program. I enjoyed checking the daily postings of pics while my child was at camp so that I could see what she was doing.  She commeted on how healthy the meals were. The first thing my child said when I picked her up was “I want to come back next year this camp was awesome”.

 

• The kids loved it, we’ll certainly be back next year

 

Because of Camp Roanoke, my child is more accepting of different types of people no matter what the differences are. It gave her positive reinforcement that she can do things, new things. We will be back next year.

 

Parents of campers in grades 7 and up!

 

• He really enjoyed himself-loved rock climbing. Communication with parents was super. Everyone I spoke with was very nice! As a parent and a teacher I was really pleased with the activities offered and how much my son loved it.

 

• I think it was great activities that made the experience memorable for my camper.  In my opinion, It’s the best camp in the world.

 

• At Camp Roanoke, my child was exposed to new things and encouraged to try them.
