This is our second child to attend Camp Tecumseh. Together they attended 11 years. I couldn’t be happier with the friends they made and their spiritual growth as it is connected to real world feelings and every day activities, not just ideals.

What a great experience for my son! At the cabin the day we dropped off my son, the counselors immediately made me feel like he would be in good hands. They were very friendly and upbeat. My son loved camp. Camp Tecumseh was highly recommended to us and now we understand why. My son will definitely be back next year, and the year after that, and the year after that. We have a 4 year-old and a 2 year-old that will most likely join the Camp Tecumseh fun one day. We are looking forward to many years with you. THANK YOU!!!!

The minute you drive into Camp Tecumseh, you know it’s a special place. Our daughter has told us that no matter who you are or what your personality---you are accepted. This was our daughter’s 5th year at resident camp. Each of those 5 years, I have seen a change in her when she comes home from camp. She comes home more confident, outgoing, and more grown up. This year, more so than any previous year, her personality is stronger, her feelings about others are more open, and her closeness to God is more evident. Parents of 14 year-old

Sending our 2 girls to Camp Tecumseh is the best thing we have ever done for them! Thank you!

- parents


After having sent our children to Camp Tecumseh for 10 years, we sometimes take for granted that they will have tons of fun, make new friends, have great counselors, learn new skills, and grow in faith. Wow, maybe that’s not something to take for granted! But it happens year after year. Thanks Camp Tecumseh!

Now is the time to sign up for summer camp! Our sessions fill up early!

The counselors and staff do an excellent job in caring for the campers, making them feel welcome, included, and special. There are so many fun things to do and many activities to choose from. They do a great job of stressing Christian values.

This is one of the best places in the world, once you go, you don’t want to leave.

His personal growth amazes us when he returns from camp. We are very pleased!

- mother of 10 year-old boy


My daughter always seems to come out of camp with a surge of maturity, confidence, faith, and enthusiasm for life. She has so many fun memories with new and old friends to share.

- mother of 15 year-old girl


I can’t thank Camp Tecumseh enough for their scholarship program! If it wasn’t for this program, my son would not have had the wonderful experience of camp.

Now is the time to sign up for summer camp! Our sessions fill up early!

My children come home much more polite, assured, and helpful. They are more thankful, too. They are happy and singing for days.

Camp Tecumseh is a great place where kids are encouraged through a strong Christian faith to put God first, others second, respect all of God’s creation, grow spiritually, develop emotionally, and exercise their physical bodies.

- parents of 10 year-old boy


We’ve been involved with this wonderful place for a while and the experiences really do last a lifetime. Camp helped raise our kids. It’s an anchor for us, and we try to remember “I’m third” all year.

- mother


Sending our children away for a week is very scary. The fears are diminished when Camp Tecumseh is concerned. You are able to view photos daily and I know she is with staff that promotes God, love, respect, kindness, and so much more. Living in a world where you cannot talk freely about God, I am so thankful to the Camp Tecumseh staff for encouraging communication and actions that show God’s love!

- mother of 10 year-old


My son comes home from camp walking taller, feeling better about himself and being a better person. He’s kinder, more respectful, and happier.

Now is the time to sign up for summer camp! Our sessions fill up early!

The morning chapel and evening devotions are a great idea and she loved it. She liked it so much she’ll be back next year. Thank you for all of your hard work and dedication. I liked being able to check the website everyday and look for her in the pictures you had posted there. It was also great to be able to send her an email through your website.

- parents of 11 year-old girl


You learn about God and you have fun at the same time!

It was an awesome feeling knowing how much our kids enjoy going to Camp T.

Camp Tecumseh will change your life and will make you see things in another perspective you wouldn’t have seen before. It is a great second family to be loved and cared about forever. My 4 years have been an experience I will never forget. 

- female camper, age 13

 

Camp Tecumseh is the experience of a lifetime. It is the one place I know I can be myself and become friends with other people that are just being themselves. Camp Tecumseh is also where I feel closest to God.

It is amazing! You can’t go anywhere else like it! You meet tons of new people, learn tons of new things, and just have Fun. I loved how my cabin became a big family and cared for one another. The staff and counselors are loving and kind, they look out for everyone. You Have to go to Camp T.

We are encouraging our daughters to go for two weeks next summer. They had a fabulous time. It reminded me of my summer camp experiences!

I promise you will always be having fun there. Camp Tecumseh is an awesome place that puts forth Christian values. You will make some great friends.

- male camper, age 13


Camp Tecumseh is very beautiful and the staff is really friendly. It is an excellent camp experience, even if you have never been to camp before. I am definitely going back and I would strongly recommend it.

- first year female camper, age 13

 

Camp Tecumseh is a very positive growth experience in all aspects. Our camper has grown and matured “on her own”, away from parents in a protected environment. Campers meet new people and are able to make friends and experience different lifestyles---food and activities. It has never been a disappointment. We also love the pictures on the website.

- parent

 

This was our 13 year old son’s first time away at camp and he had an awesome time. He loved the activities and the counselors and said he learned more about God. We plan to return next year.

- parent

 

This was our daughter’s first sleep-away camp and she absolutely loved it! The counselors are so welcoming and loving and make the week so fun for everyone. We can’t wait to come back next summer.

- parent of 9 year old camper

 
Greatest camp ever. It is like a giant family and no one is left out.

- male camper, age 15
 

This was my 12 year old daughter’s first year and she had a fabulous time. Check-in and check-out are a breeze. She said, “There are great, exciting people and you are so active plus you get closer to God.”

- parent

 

Camp Tecumseh is a great place to meet new friends and try new things. Also it will help you grow in your faith! Greatest camp ever!

It was a great experience about faith, fun and games, & great counselors.

- female first year camper, age 11



You get put in a cabin full of nice and friendly people. You do many fun activities such as going to the lake, going to the Black Hole, and many more. It’s tons of fun and the food is great too!

- female 4th year camper, age 12



This was our daughter’s 1st year and the minute I picked her up she asked to go back next year!

- parent


This was our teen-aged son’s first experience at a camp and it was so great for him! It’s too bad he couldn’t have experienced Camp Tecumseh sooner!

- parent



Inspirational, sensational, fun, awesome! Exactly how you would like a camp to be!

- parent of 11 year old camper



We had a terrific first time experience for our daughter, age 10. As a parent with my child gone for a whole week for the first time, I really appreciated the new pictures of camp on the web each day. I also liked the written report from the counselor that we received after camp. It was a wonderful camp experience.

- parent



Camp Tecumseh is much more than an awesome, fun-filled camp experience, it is also a spiritual shot in the arm for our children. The Christ-like love and guidance you give our children is priceless!

- parent of two campers



We love Camp Tecumseh because it is a wonderful, God-centered community that allows children to see that other people (cool people) believe in God and openly acknowledge Him in their daily life.

- parent


The counselors are awesome, enthusiastic, and inspirational. I love how easy it is to make friends and how the Camp Tecumseh environment is so fun and warm. Great activities too.

- female 4th year camper, age 14



Camp Tecumseh is the best camp I’ve ever been to. It has been a positive and fun experience for everyone. The food is good and you meet many new friends. The counselors are really nice and a lot of fun! I love Camp Tecumseh!

Camp Tecumseh is an experience of a lifetime. Once you go, you will wish you could go for the whole summer.

- male camper, age 11


This is [our son's] third year at Tecumseh and again he has returned with a very positive experience. Each year there is a level of maturity that he brings home. I can't say enough about all the good things Tecumseh has to offer campers in a non-competitive and spiritual environment. Thanks again for another great week!

-parent of male camper, age 16


I would say that it's an experience of a lifetime. You're learning about yourself in fun ways and expanding your faith in God. I met great people who were extremely welcoming and nice and enthusiastic. Camp T is the one thing I look forward to all year long.

- female camper, age 14


Now is the time to sign up for summer camp! Our sessions fill up early!

We feel [our son] is in a safe, nurturing, extremely positive place while he is at Tecumseh. There is a noticeable difference in his attitude and outlook when we pick him up on Saturday morning.

- parent of male camper, age 11


Camp Tecumseh has added so much to my life and has meant more to me than I ever could have imagined. It's an amazing experience and opportunity for mental and spiritual growth.

- female adventure tripper, age 15

  

It's the most amazing and uplifting place in the world. Everyone works together and cares about each other. You feel better about yourself, and once you're there you never want to leave.

- female CILT camper age 17

       

It’s a great, very inspiring, encourages enthusiasm, lots of activities available that you choose; cool counselors; great food; great new lodge; cabins; climbing tower. You make lots of new friends. (Mom: It’s my son’s home away from home; we can’t imagine a summer without Camp T!)

- male camper age 14 and parent



Camp Tecumseh has literally changed my granddaughter’s life. She has grown in faith over the last two summers and gained valuable life experiences that I’m sure will stay with her for the rest of her life. She has had many emotional and health problems over her short life span that have taken a great toll on her. She has spiraled to depths of despair that I feared she would never recover from, nor would she be happy again. If any of you ever wonder if you make a difference in a child’s life, or if what you do impacts someone or changes a life, please think of my granddaughter’s personal victory. What you have done for her is beyond what words can express.
