My son is attending his final Summer at Camp and it's been a bittersweet time for our family! Ms JoJo has been amazing and adjusted the max age for the LIT program so that my son could attend. She's been a real lifesaver! Camp Kennett is the place to be during the Summer!

The organization of the summer was greatly improved. One area of concern is on days with extreme heat it is important to provide staff with the importance of monitoring hydration for campers. Some younger camp counselors may not understand how frequent hydration breaks should occur. A few parents had shared they had a similar concern based on conversations with their child as well.
Thank you for the opportunity to provide feedback.

Adventure Summer Camp keeps my child engaged throughout the day, and the level of activity helps her sleep soundly at night. The counselors are top notch.

Our family is so grateful for the experiences our son, First name removed, has had at the YMCA Outdoor Summer Camp this year. Every day, he wakes up excited and eager to head to camp, and it’s clear that this is where he truly shines.

The YMCA values of respect, responsibility, honesty, and caring are not just words on a wall here—they are lived out daily by every counselor, and those values have begun to permeate our home as well. We’ve seen a noticeable change in First name removed, as he’s grown more confident and resilient, tackling challenges with a positive mindset. One evening, while working on a particularly tough puzzle at home, we overheard him say to himself, "I can do it... I'm camper of the week!" It was such a heartwarming moment, knowing that the encouragement he’s received at camp has made a lasting impact on his self-belief.

The entire camp staff deserves high praise, as every single counselor has been professional, kind, and truly invested in the well-being of the children. They have created an environment where First name removed feels supported and valued, and as parents, that is something we cherish deeply.

A special mention must go to Ms. JoJo, who has been nothing short of incredible. Her dedication and advocacy for these kids are evident in everything she does. She is exactly the kind of person you want guiding your children during these formative years—someone who is not only skilled and organized but also genuinely cares about their growth and development. Ms. JoJo’s influence has been a beacon of positivity for First name removed, and we can’t thank her enough for the role she has played in his summer.

YMCA Outdoor Summer Camp is more than just a place to spend the summer—it’s a place where children learn, grow, and thrive. We are so thankful for the impact it’s had on our son and look forward to many more summers with this incredible team!
