The experiences. The fact that my child spends all days outdoors pending few exceptions (downpours and thunder). It's not a place to send my kid to be watched but instead a place to send my kid to experience real camp experience minus the sleepaway part. Only reason I can't rate it all the way, is the cost is a bit on the high side especially when including the busing. And if you are applying this cost across multiple children, it can become very pricey for a family. Otherwise we have loved everything so far about the camp and appreciate all that the counselors and staff do.

Blue Mountain Day Camp offers lots of opportunity to enjoy the outdoors and try new activities. The staff is always friendly and do a great job. I love the emphasis on engaging with one another which does not happen often in the world of technology we live in.

I love everything--the dedicated staff who go above and beyond, the choice of activities, the twice a day swimming. My kids have thoroughly enjoyed their experience this summer at Blue Mountain Day Camp.

I loved all the outdoor activities and the lack of technology. Every night my camper came home with a story of Pally the horse or building a fort.

There are so many great outdoor activities. My child has been excited every day to go to camp. I have never seen him this excited.

What a fantastic camp experience for Harlow! She was thrilled with the diverse activities and developed a wonderful bond with her counselor. It was such a positive time that she's already counting down the days until she can go back!

My daughter has been going to this camp for 4 years now. She looks forward to going to camp every year! She meets new kids every year and has some returning friends she gets excited to see again. The camp counselors are great and have made each summer memorable for my daughter. So thankful for the opportunity my daughter has to learn and explore every day at camp.

My grandson is attending and is having the time of his life. He will be 13 in July and is so so happy at your camp. He even tells me all about it, I usually get "it was great." Not this time, he talks and talks about his day!!

My daughter is one week in and several more to go enjoying summer camp at Blue Mountain Day Camp. The staff is great and attentive. The daily communication from the camp director to all camp families is very well accepted. You can tell C. Koch loves what she does and in doing so helps ease parents minds that our children are safe, well cared for and having fun. I’m happy to be able to give my daughter this experience and we look forward to the remaking weeks of the summer and years to come!

My daughter is thriving! I really appreciate how well the staff handled the hot weather last week. I also love that they keep on top of her needing sunscreen - she's a busy kid and its not always easy to get her to pause and reapply - they are masters at it! Can't wait for a full summer of fun!
