“Morning inspection was a blast. Who knew cleaning and looking sharp so much fun? He insisted on a bonding ritual of some sort and our Scouts came up with the limbo and catching each other in fall-back exercises.”

“The swim test where 3 of these inner city youths with minimal exposure to swimming, wisely begged off and another 2 were joined by lifeguards within seconds of hitting the water, while 2 tired and swam to the dock before completing the test.
It was clear, we had our work cut out for us, but all 7 were swimming before the week was over!”

“My child had an absolute blast at camp! It was their most memorable experience yet and totally meaningful as it was the last campout they got to share with their best friend. They came home excited about everything they learned, from ocean exploration to leatherworking, and were thrilled to have canoed across the island to relax on the beach. Thank you for giving them such an incredible and great opportunity!”

“My time at Cherry Valley was so great. The staff helped me become a good swimmer, and the island’s facilities gave me an incredible opportunity to learn about marine life before I go to college. This camp has made a awesome impact on my life and my future. I hope others get the same chance I did.”
