One camper summed up his week-long experience in 2019, "It has been so amazing, meeting all of these park professionals. I learned so much and gained many positive perspectives. Everyone has been very supportive and helpful. I am excited to go home and apply my new knowledge and skills to my park. This camp really encouraged a positive and real vibe that feels like a family. My eyes have been opened. I hope I get to come back every year. I am forever grateful for this experience."
