What others have to say about Kenesserie Camp

“I would describe Kenesserie Camp as a camp that focuses on making sure the campers are comfortable and have the best experience they can. They make sure everyone gets involved in all activities and that they challenge themselves to try new things.”

Some of their favourite things included, their campouts, arts & crafts, the games (especially the last game where you had to grab a card and the one card you got sprayed with shaving cream)."

Parent

“The first time I left my kiddo overnight was this year to camp. Very nervous, but she has wanted to go ever since attending a school trip. I must say, it was truly a wonderful experience and I appreciate that so much! Every single staff member was so happy and pleasant. My child loved attending and cannot wait to return. Doing a wonderful job!”

“Great way to get kiddos out of their shells. So much fun. A great experience!”

Parent
“It’s a fun filled time, with lots of games and activities and some of the best staff ever. It is truly one of the best experiences for youth of all ages.”

“Wonderful, my children felt safe with the staff, my picky eater loved the food, my anxious daughter found peace.”

“they wouldn’t change a thing, they miss camp already”

Parent

“Kenesserie camp is the best sleep-away camp experience for kids. They can make new friends, try new things and learn the best songs. They come home so excited to share about their weeks and we sing the favourite songs all year long.”

“Every child’s experience will be different and it varies year to year. My daughter overall has had the best times over her three summers and talks constantly about coming back. She wants to do multiple weeks next year after this year being so great.”

Parent
“With so much technology at home and school, my kids look forward to going to camp every year to get away from it all. By the time they are done their first week of camp, I see their imaginations come bursting out. Camp gives them a place to unwind. They enjoy learning new things in the great outdoors in a safe and fun environment.”
