Why Camp Shalom?
Parents and guardians were asked in our summer camp evaluation why they chose Camp Shalom over other summer camps. Here are some of their responses.
-
It’s a wonderful camp that the kids loved, they learned a lot and had a great time.
-
My experience with the camp was staff interaction, having my questions answered and the way the kids were registered and de-registered. I was happy to see security measures put in place and the de-registration process overall. I have absolutely no complaints. Everyone was so great.
-
They truly were caring, loving counsellors with a strong moral faith life which was exemplary to all! What an experience!
-
It was close to home, and our children had such a wonderful, life changing experience last year.
-
Its fairly close to home and as all my children have been going there for years, its the only place they continuously ask to go back to, even with other alternatives offered. They love the staff and friends made over the years and really feel connected to God while their away at camp. It gives them a sense of belonging.
-
Keep doing what you’re doing! I'm so thankful and appreciative of what Camp Shalom has taught and offered my children.
-
It reaffirms the Christian values we are trying to teach at home. We know that he is safe and learning more about God on a daily basis. The cousellors and programs are excellent. They are modified to make sure each camper gives their best at all times.
-
The camp is an awesome camp! Both my children and I really enjoy what the camp provides and offers for a week! Keep up the wonderful work! May God bless all of you!
