I wanted her to experience being away from home, to learn to bond with other kids and do fun activities before she started high school. Camp Fitch gives her a chance to learn how to make new friends outside of her peers at school.

I have very fond memories of summer camp as a child and I want that for our kids. We love that Camp Fitch is on Lake Erie and that you offer activities that allow the kids to enjoy the lake. We're happy about the values that are taught and followed at Camp Fitch, and feel that our kids return each year a little better than when they arrived.

Camp Fitch, and the YMCA in general, have a solid reputation and good reviews. This camp with its large terrains and location on Lake Erie to offer everything that we were looking for in our son’s camp experience. Overall, this was a very positive camp experience for our son, with many fun memories.

I grew up going to Camp Fitch both as a camper and a staffer every summer into my college years. I still have many close relationships from spending my summers there, including my best friend. This camp had a huge impact on me as a young person and I highly recommend it if you are considering it for your children.

I love the family atmosphere and fun to be had at every turn. The minute you walk in you feel it!

It shows him that there are many other types of people out there in the world. The school year can be very stressful with nasty kids singling out any one who is not popular. Puberty intensifies these feelings of being left out.

I loved Camp Fitch as a kid and want my kids to have the same great experience I had.

Camp Fitch is a family tradition. All of our family members -- my parents, my siblings my children and I have all attended camp. We all love it and are able to share that feeling with one another. Camp Fitch fosters healthy, Christian behavior in an atmosphere of fun, acceptance for others and development of self.

I have such a good time at Camp Fitch. It's always the best part of my summers and brings so many kids joy and happiness!

Camp has been a great chance for her to totally be herself. No one has any preconceived notions about who she is. She totally came out of her shell last year at camp, after not being so sure if she wanted to attend. There was never a question about if she would attend again. She just loved it.

Evan has grown as a person and matures every year. I can't wait for him to continue the values that he learns while away at camp when he comes home.

I have spent every summer at Camp Fitch since I was 9. It is my favorite place ever. I have met some of the closest people in my life there. I can never thank Camp for everything it has done, and continues to do for me. I love it!!!!
