  • Cooper really enjoyed the time he's had a camp. I just wanted you to know that your counselors have been amazing. Cooper had a particularly great time with Cullan and Eric. He talked non-stop about how much fun and how awesome they were. This was his first time attending anything like this, so thank you so much for making this such a fantastic experience. Thanks again for such a wonderful experience!! We look forward to attending again next summer!

  • I wanted to let you know how much my son has enjoyed his time at Kids First this summer. He will be back for some more fun next summer! I also wanted to say thanks to you and your team for accommodating my older son (with some special needs) as well. I really appreciate the opportunity for him to be involved, though he is hard to persuade to participate in some things, it still means a lot to him and me that he can come.

  • I wanted to thank you overall for what a great job you've all done to put this camp together. My daughter usually takes a while to warm up to new things, but she LOVED her first day at camp. She couldn't stop talking about all the activities and can't wait to see what's next. I can't tell you what a relief it is to know that she is happy, trying new things, and in great hands.
