Camp Fitch is a family tradition now. It helps the kids develop independence and self-esteem. They are able to survive without their parents and enjoy themselves immensely. In school, teachers can tell kids who have had these kinds of experiences. It adds richness to their character.

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.

It gives him a chance to explore life in a controlled setting while gaining needed social skills and computer programming skills. As a high functioning teen with autism he needs to learn how to connect with others on his own.

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!

We picked Camp Fitch initially to give our child an opportunity to interact with other children and experience some independence. She immediately fell in love with camp.

My daughter and I are very close. I feel at times that this bond has been her crutch to break out and believe that she can do things without me. Camp allows her to see in herself what I see in her every day.

Camp allows my daughter a time and place to unwind and get away from the everyday things in today's fast paced life. She can unplug, expend energy, and enjoy the outdoors with all of its natural challenges and beauties. In addition, the very spiritual nature of the camp, the devotions and the ceremonies have left an imprint on her heart!

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.

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.

She loves the activities and the chance to meet new friends. She loves the independence of being away from home for a week and making decisions based on her interests.

At Camp we have an extra energy. We have the opportunity to do new activities, hear each others stories, learn new cultures, make each other happy, and experience the best week of the summer!

We like the "classic camp" feel with a variety of activities like archery, horseback riding, swimming, and Lake Erie time. We like the cabent model. We appreciate the affordable price.
