Why choose a girls summer camp?

So your child can:

• Grow, free from pressure to perform in front of the opposite sex.
• Learn new skills, without the competition of looking for a summer romance.
• Play hard, enjoying the safety of one more summer where it is ok to be a yourself!
• Learn honor and integrity from a staff of excellent female role models.

A Girls Summer Camp can be a wonderful growing experience for your child. Consider the following quotes:

"As the pressure to be popular, mature and independent increases, their anxiety levels skyrocket. Spending a week or two without that stress may be just what your child needs to regroup and recharge."

-Cathy Ashby, editor of Carolina Parent magazine.

"We all hate to fail," says Adam Boyd, "but children are especially afraid of failing in front of their parents or in front of the other sex. Single-sex camping removes both and allows children to try things they are pretty confident they'll do poorly in. This is how camp discovers talents. This is how campers grow."

-Adam Boyd, Director, Camp Merri-Mac for Girls.
