My daughter was very excited to attend her first day camp this summer. I filled out her medical…read moreinfo, letting them know that she had been diagnosed with separation anxiety and asthma. I expected and received a phone call on the first day. I discussed with the counselor what coping skills worked best with her. On the fourth day of camp, I received a call saying that she has attempted to assault a counselor. I rushed in to discover that she had been crying, wanting to come home and had just been told "no. You have to participate with the rest of the kids." I was told by the counselor that she had been wheezing all day, and vomiting. When she went to hug the counselor (counselor told me herself that she opened her arms to invite her in for a hug) for some comfort, she was mouth breathing at this time as nothing was done about her asthma even with an air quality alert. They accused her of attempting to bite and refused to allow her to finish the last day of camp. There are 3 times they should have called me before this moment, 2 of which were medical emergencies and could have resulted in hospital visits. I made the mistake of thinking that because they call themselves "Christian based" that my seven year old would be treated with love and kept safe. Instead she was out into a dangerous situation and then criticized and accused of things she never did.

Four kids. Four completely different personalities, backgrounds and needs. One place where each of…read morethem simply got to be a camper. We had four kiddos experience Camp Kern over the years, two biological and our twin foster/adoptive daughters. Between them, we experienced everything from Taste of Kern and theme camps to Horse Camp and Adventure Camp. What stands out most to me looking back is just how different our children were. We had one who was incredibly energetic and lived for the adventure, twin girls who came into our family with some pretty big life experiences, and our youngest, who is highly functional autistic, very introverted, and had speech apraxia. They each came to camp with their own personalities, strengths, challenges and labels. But at Camp Kern, they weren't defined by any of those things. They simply got to be campers. With our twins, the staff made it a point to listen to our feedback about how the girls would best enjoy and benefit from camp. We talked about whether that meant keeping them completely together, completely apart, or finding a mixture of both. That mattered more than they probably ever realized. The girls had been each other's only known family throughout their lives. It was important for them to be able to physically see each other and cross paths throughout camp, while also having enough separation to make friends, try new things and create experiences that belonged to each of them individually. Camp Kern honored both needs beautifully. The girls crossed paths many times, giving them the reassurance of knowing the other was there, but they weren't so connected that one sister's experience became the other's. Each girl was able to have an individual camp experience while still having the security of her sister nearby. That made a HUGE difference for them. Our youngest's experience showed us that same level of individual attention in a completely different way. There was only one time he became overwhelmed while at camp. His counselors sat with him while he called us and gave him the time he needed to talk through it. He also loved going to the camp parties, but his counselors understood that the noise and activity could sometimes become overwhelming. They always made sure he visited the "library" first so he knew exactly where he could go to read and have some quiet time if he needed it. Something that simple made a world of difference for him. He could participate in everything with the other campers while knowing he had a safe, quiet place to go if it became too much. The funny part was pickup. His counselors would sometimes seem concerned that maybe he hadn't enjoyed himself because he was so quiet and didn't necessarily express his excitement outwardly. In reality, he had an absolute blast! We'd hear about his adventures and all the things he did for weeks afterward. And believe me, our kiddos were NOT filtered when they talked to us about their experiences. Over the years, we heard the good, the bad and everything in between, which is exactly why I feel so comfortable saying that I would wholeheartedly recommend Camp Kern. They never expected four very different children to experience camp in the same way. They listened to us as parents, learned who our kids were, adapted when needed, and gave each of them the opportunity to experience camp in the way that worked for them. Their backgrounds, diagnoses and challenges helped the staff understand what they needed, but those things never became who they were at camp. At Camp Kern, they simply got to be kids. As a parent, that's the part I will always remember.
