About America's Camp

Aidan and his counselor Neil Mackin
enjoy a rest hour game of Battleship

"I have to tell you what an amazing time Aidan had at America's Camp this summer. For me, it was a turning point for him. Since he has returned, he seems happier, lighter. He felt tremendous confidence and a sense of independence from being away, and most of all he had so much fun. He talks about camp all the time and even told me he wants to be a counselor there when he grows up. I will never forget picking him up. He ran across the lawn into my arms and said 'Mom! it was the BEST week of my life!' I wanted to cry. It's been such a hard journey for both of us, and your camp made such a profound difference in both of our lives. He can't wait until next summer."
