Member Testimonials
The vast selection of things a camper can do on any given day is wonderful. Everyone can find their fun.
Camp was a great opportunity for my kid. The whole team was responsive and made the process simple and concise. My questions were answered and doubts were handled accordingly.
My children had the best of experience there
My daughter had a great time. She was extremely homesick at first and the staff really helped her (and us!) work through it. She really thrived and grew through her week this summer. She will be back next year!
My daughter was able to open up to her peers and adults during her week experience . She is a very timid adolescent and it was big accomplishment for her to be able to feel comfortable . I was very impressed about how professional all of the staff were and their positive energy towards my child.
On the third day my daughter was experiencing home sickness and wanted to go home. The nice counselor was able to redirect my daughter fears into a calm state, and she let my daughter call me to hear my voice.
My daughter had an overall great experience and was able to make lasting friendships. Not only did she meet friends, but was able to learn new fun activities that she hopes to enjoy back home.
Thank you YMCA for everything,
Candice Jackson
My child was extremely depressed during the pandemic and has had a hard time in school ever since. I was very worried about her week at camp but she seemed to thrive there thanks to the attention from her counselors and all the integration activities. Thank you, Camp Cullen!
An overall experience you give to this kids!! My daughter was so excited and is ready for next year!!
This was our kids first time not only away from home but also at an overnight camp. The kids had a great time and we loved how busy they stayed. One of our boys did the equestrian program and another did the water sports. As parents we loved that we could see daily pictures of all the fun they were having. We can’t wait until next summer!
Great facilities and activities at a great price!
My child enjoyed his week there! I enjoyed the photography, he enjoyed the water slide and tubing on the lake…. And I heard so much about the quarry and his new fire building and survival skills!
He also made new friends and will be back next year hoping to see them!!
The program is really good my kid now goes to sleep early and wakes up early instead of her being on video games all day
The kids are constantly engaged and even those who are not accustomed to being away from home are to busy having fun with new friends to think about being homesick!
My children have enjoyed all of the camp enrichment programs for years . Top of the list is equestrian specialty, survival skills and water sports. The friendships formed among the girls has been a joy for my daughters.
The variety of programs and the opportunity for extra time with horses and water sports.
My kids love it at Camp Cullen! It such a wonderful place where they can try new things, make new friends, and have a little adventure in their life. They love the independence of staying at overnight camp. My son has liked participating in photography and the newsletter - something he really doesn't get to do anywhere else...along with the tubing and wet willy. My daughter loves the equestrian camp.
My daughter loves to attend camp and all the staff are always fun and engaging.
Fun and safe place for my daughters to go to sleepaway camp.
Kids exposure to counselors from other countries and variety of activities for the kids! Love hearing stories and hearing about the chants they learned at camp. I have referred many people to Camp Cullen.
All the different activists for the kids to do.
My kids loved the camp and will definitely be back next year. Amazing people amazing people. Thank you so much!
Kids love them all. And Luke, this years leader of camp was phenomenal. He was dealt with several challenging dynamics to manage through and I was so impressed with how he leaned in and led with such a positive approach for helping with learnings and supporting our children.
My daughter loved the activities and the fact that she got to choose her plan each day. I love that the programs were a balance of physically active and creative pursuits.
Everything was great!! Will be doing it again
Great facilities. I like the international counselors. My sons really liked that more activities were open this year than in recent past years. Both my sons are asking to go back for another session this summer. Please keep safety in mind, particularly near the water. We don't want any big accidents.
My daughter loved all of it! She couldn’t wait to tell me all about the horses, and pottery, and water sports. She said it was her favorite week of summer ever.
My child was able to try new things that he would never get the opportunity if he didn't go to Camp Cullen.
My daughter learned how to swim! Something she’s been terrified to do for ages! I’m glad she had fun and was able to attend.
He loved the program and ALLLLLL ACTIVITIES!
Everything! Staff and counselors were excellent! They made my first time camper feel so welcomed. When he was feeling bit homesick, they reassured him it was okay and there was tons of activities coming up and wouldn't want to miss any of it. He came home ready for me to book for next summer!
My daughter loved being outdoors, all the activites at lake, games, arts and crafts. All the counselors were super nice too!
The staff was very nice and helpful, the campsite was beautiful, and my son had a great time.
