A MESSAGE FROM
JOHN and REVIE
|
Since 1983, we have been committed
to a caring atmosphere, dedicated to team spirit and personal
attention. We live on campus throughout the whole camp with the
boys, eat all our meals together, and participate in every workout
and evening program. Each camper is important to us! We get to
know each boy by name, and they return year after year. Through
enthusiasm and encouragement, every camper comes away with a great
positive attitude. We make hard work fun. We promise you an experience
of a lifetime - one you will never forget! |
