Hi Sylvia-
My son and niece attended the summer camp in RSM (SAMLARC) this summer and had the best time.  They are always asking if it is time to go back to CampCo yet?  When the email came about the Little Elves' workshop they were so excited and we signed up right away. Your counselors are very enthusiastic and seem to truly enjoy being there with the kids all day.  We look forward to summer at CampCo again and hope that Bethany will be there again.

Thank you,

Christina Mahr

Sylvia,
The purpose of this letter is to commend Belen at your Lake Forest camp for the excellent care she has provided. In my opinion, her concern for the children in her care and especially my son was above and beyond the normal requirements. In this day where exceptional care has virtually disappeared, the work that Belen and her team provide should be held up as an example for others to try to emulate.

What particularly impressed me about Belen was when my son had a bloody nose and she was not only able to stop the blood, but calm him down by telling him stories about when she got a bloody nose.

In closing, I believe that Belen and the Lake Forest team truly deserve to be congratulated for providing a wonderful, safe and caring environment that goes well beyond normal expectations.

I really enjoyed meeting you this afternoon while picking up my two boys from CampCo (it is comforting to know that you have children and they also go to Camp!). Our boys have been attending the CampCo at Lake Forest Sun and Sail Club once or twice a week this summer

I really want to commend you and your staff for running such an safe, efficient and fun environment for kids of all ages. I work part-time and mainly from home; however, there are days that I cannot avoid going into the office. Usually I find I need to go in first thing in the morning. Due to my husband's work schedule there are days that we need someone to watch our 4 and 6 year old boys. It could be for 3 hours or 8 hours... On a Monday one week and a Thursday the next. We have never been a family with a consistent schedule. CampCo's flexibility works so great for us! Each time I call with a question or concern, your knowledgeable staff has an answer. On top of that they are extremely pleasant and professional. Your camp counselors are caring and have so much energy. It really is amazing. Each counselor knows the children's names and is very observant. It is obvious that they care a lot about each child in their care

We really want you and your staff to keep up the great work you all do each day. It means a lot to parents that need safe, flexible, fun and reliable child care.

Thanks for taking the time to care for families in Orange County.

To Whom It May Concern:

My son Ryan was in summer camp at Lake Forest II on Tuesdays and Thursdays.  I just wanted to let you know that all the girls were really great, but Roma in particular was exceptional.  My son is shy and she really made him feel at ease.  She always had a smile on her face and was very friendly and great with the kids.  She is truly an asset to your  team.  Thanks for making Ryan's time at camp fun.

Hi Sylvia – J. Bird here from Ladera Ranch.

I just wanted to let you know that the camp experience for my daughters was so positive.

Michelle and Danielle were most often their leaders and the quality of leadership and responsible care was outstanding – big plus to you for your Hiring/selection process. I have always been a business owner so I appreciate and recognize the management level you must be providing.

On a personal note… I work full time and I am a single parent – it important to me that my daughters are ALSO getting the most out of their day.  Your Founders Park program was always consistent. Thank you !

This was our first year ( moved to LD from Laguna Niguel) and we look forward to more CampCo programs.

The camp leaders were also talking to my older daughter about your CIT program (even though she only turns 12 in Nov)  but it was their “vote of confidence” in her made her feel really good.

Keep up the good work – it matters!!

Hi Sylvia,
Before I forget, I just wanted to personally say how impressed I am with the Camp Co. program in Ladera Ranch.  From 9:00 am to 4:00pm your staff is so enthusiastic!  There is no doubt they all enjoy being with the kids and show pride in their work.  They are very professional with the way they handle the camp programs, not "hanging out" with their other counselors. They make certain the child is only picked up by the authorized adult and that is a huge comfort!
Thank you for making Karli's summer such a blast!

My daughter was enrolled in five sessions of the Little Folks camp this summer, and I wanted to let you know that it was wonderfully run with a very caring and qualified staff.  I felt my child was very safe and happy.  I'm looking forward to enrolling her again next summer.  Thank you to Teri and all of the staff!

To:   Sylvia N. Rosenthal/CampCo Owner

I am writing you this letter to express my sincere thanks and appreciation in regards to all you aranged for our kids this summer at E.B. (East Beach) of Lake Mission Viejo, a beach with great privacy and cozy atmosphere for the campers!  I would also like to thank the Lake Mission Viejo Association for their cooperation in this regard and moreover, publishing and mailing the camps and events prior to summer vacation for the parents to schedule and look forward for their children's summer activities; working parents in particular.

What played a major task for my daughter, Kimia, and me, and I am sure for the other parents as well, was the fact that we send in our kids to LMVA Camp "happy" and "healthy" each morning and received them "happy" and "healthy" at the end of the day.  The counselors and assistants were not only extremely nice and sweet but also rendered excellent supervision.

Last, but not least, my daughter and me wanted to thank Lauren Savage, Marie Lett, Scarlett Lealuga and Erin Wieghaus for their great approach, performance and control of our children this summer.  Also, thanks to the CITs ( I assume that stands for "counselors in training") and all other employees for their efforts and assistance.

Dear Sylvia:

Thank you for providing my kids with their “best summer ever”. My kids came home smiling from camp every day with new songs to sing and games to play. Their accounts of the day often made me laugh out loud. Your camp was everything a parent and child could hope it would be. The counselors were very responsible and courteous to me, and more importantly they were warm and enthusiastic with my kids.

Although all of the counselors were wonderful, a few stuck out for me and my kids. Senior Counselor Margaret Dubel greeted me each morning and patiently answered all of my questions. She put me at ease with her maturity and happy smile. My kids also spoke fondly of Jen, Jeremy, Nina, Natalie, Ashley, and Nicole. My kids were often greeted with a warm hug and assistance out of the car. They also made adjustments for my son who was a young one in the group by allowing him to participate in the activities with which he was comfortable and hang back on other activities.

In an age when both parents are working, it’s so nice to feel that my kids can still have a sense of what summer camp should be a time to run around, play, swim, goof off, and just be a kid. Thanks for so many great memories. We’ll see you again next summer and many more to come!

With warm regards,

Kristen Pitts
