summer camp

At Camp Kingfisher we love our campers – sharing nature and making memories together each summer on our 127 acres.

We were fortunate to host camp in a modified format in 2020, and maintained the magic of summer in addition to overwhelmingly positive feedback from our hundreds of campers. Here’s a peek at what families and campers had to say about their experience at Camp Kingfisher.

“My kids did several camps this year and Camp Kingfisher was one of the most organized and most communicative, with continuous updates on everything from Covid preparedness to daily activities”

“We greatly appreciate all the steps taken to ensure a safe camp experience. It was obvious from day one that everyone was taking it very seriously. It made it easier for the kids to follow along when they saw their counselors following the same rules and precautions. Great job!”

“My family was so thankful to have Camp Kingfisher this summer. My kids truly enjoyed their week in nature and with other children. And I enjoyed seeing them back in their element. After a strange and weird spring, I had started to see some light come out of their eyes, and this camp restored that light! I can’t thank you enough!”

“I am so grateful for Camp Kingfisher and everything you did to make it a true bright spot in a bummer of a summer. Safe and FUN!”

“Communications throughout the summer leading up to and during camp were excellent. The staff adherence to COVID precautions for themselves and the campers was excellent. Thank You!”

When asked, what was your camper’s LEAST favorite activity at camp, the number 1 answer by a long shot was: NOTHING!

“Camp Kingfisher is his favorite camp, so he LOVES coming.”

“Our Counselor was great!! Patient, kind, thoughtful, and inspiring as a scientist for our budding scientist.”

“My daughter loved it! Typically, we need camp for child care reasons. This year, I had alternative arrangements, but we still attended because we wanted socialization and life as “normal”. We were nervous about exposure, but were very impressed with CNC’s handling. It was a wonderful experience for her and next year she wants to do 2 weeks!”

“My son had the absolute best time at camp. It was just what he needed and fostered his love of outdoors. He struggled to really enjoy his time at [another camp], but from day 1 he could not stop talking about all that he did every day at Camp Kingfisher. He loved all the outdoor activities and everything you did. He had a great time with his counselors and came home exhausted (in a good way) every day. He was happy to get up and go each and every day.”

“Our son had an amazing time and was literally mad every day when we picked him up because he didn’t want to leave. He’s already excited about going back next year. The staff was awesome with him and we couldn’t be more pleased with his experience. Thank you to all the Camp staff and his counselors.”

“This is our favorite camp. I pick up a tired and happy child every time.”

To our Camp K families, thank you for letting us be a part of your camper’s summer year after year. If your child has never been to Camp Kingfisher, we hope you will explore what our program has to offer.

Spring Break Camp is coming up and a great way to ‘try’ camp in a smaller format, and registration opens March 2. And as always, our friendly staff are always available to answer your questions and to help prepare you and your camper for a summer of fun. We are looking forward to Summer 2021!
