The energy and engagement of the counselors ... the thoughtfulness of the camp with drop-off and pick-up procedures, signage, raincoats, advanced communication, and color coded maps online ... and importantly the programming of Amazing Challenge Camp ... it felt thoughtful and intentional, not just random games. We have also all appreciated the somewhat overnight camp-like feel of LINX Camps with the built in traditions, singing, etc. As a first time camper, it did not take my daughter long to learn about and embrace the traditions. Thank you!" J.S., Newton

Our children rave about their counselors who really make their day and summer!!! They enjoy their Adventures Camps — especially Amazing Challenge and Ninja Warrior. They are even returning with sore muscle from all of their efforts." Our children rave about their counselors who really make their day and summer!!!

My two kids, who were in Amazing Challenge Camp last week, had a wonderful time. It was a great camp and they'd really like to do it again next year! They especially liked the independence of doing the challenges across the campus!" My two kids, who were in Amazing Challenge Camp last week, had a wonderful time.
