Ours is a fun and healthy traditional camp atmosphere. We are not a hospital and we are not a clinic where your child will be placed in endless therapy sessions. What we are is an experienced summer camp where we have a tremendous amount of fun. Your child will learn good nutritional habits while gaining the strength and self esteem to make good lifestyle decisions. Our superb staff will help your child develop a positive self-image, lose weight, gain confidence, get challenged through new activities, make life-long friendships and have the time of their lives.

With roughly a 4 to 1 counselor to camper ratio, each child gets the individualized attention they need. With about 30 kids in a given age group, your child will form healthy, age-appropriate friendships. Contrast this to other weight loss programs who struggle to attract more than 50 children for an entire summer. Ask yourself, is it really a camp when there are only 2-3 kids in a given age group? How do you even have a softball game? And do you really want your child to spend the summer mixing with campers who are much older or younger than they are?

Most weight loss camps are not ACA accredited. We are. Why is this so important? ACA accreditation is the best evidence parents have of a camp's commitment to a safe and nurturing environment for their children. This accreditation assures parents that camp practices have been measured against national standards and go a step beyond a state's basic licensing requirements. Accreditation is based on a commitment by the camp to best practices. Be careful. Some chains of camps accredit a single location. This does not mean all locations are accredited. Parents can (and should) verify the accreditation status of any camp at any time. This may be accomplished through ACA's website or by calling 1-800-428-CAMP.

This is a traditional camp in all respects that stands shoulder to shoulder with the best camps of the world - of any type. Why should a child who wants to lose weight and learn healthy habits have to settle for anything less? They shouldn't. We have the most extensive on site activities of any weight loss camp in the country. Do you want your child spending their days being bused to this activity and that? Of course not. Our kids have a blast in a true camp atmosphere; not a clinic, not a hospital. That's why so many of our kids look forward to coming back year after year. It is also important to note that all of our properties are exclusively used by our campers. We would never share our camps with outside groups. Many other camp operators share their facilities which makes for a great lack of control and security.

For the past 10 years we have had the same directors and most of the same staff at our 2 camp locations. Compare this to other revolving door programs that open new locations each year. There is no consistency and the staff have little or no camp experience. Most importantly, our directors are all true camp people. They have the experience to handpick and screen certified staff who are kind, compassionate and talented role models. With roughly a 4 to 1 counselor to camper ratio each child gets the individualized attention they need. And our ACA accreditation is your assurance of the highest standards in hiring practices.
