Summer Camp News

SuperCamp Since launching in 1982, SuperCamp has been featured in a number of great summer camp news stories in the print media, as well as television and radio reports both on the local and national level.

From CNN to USA TODAY and THE WALL STREET JOURNAL, the media has been impressed with SuperCamp's dynamic accelerated learning, life skills and academic development methods that bring out the best in kids 11 to 19, and it's reflected in the many camp news stories on SuperCamp.


"It's incredible", said Andrew Van Dyke of Monument, Colorado. He's been to two SuperCamps and said his life has changed because of them. "Before I was really timid toward people", Van Dyke said. After experiencing all the things at camp, I'm motivated. I want to be a doctor. - USA Today
A new breed of summer camp has sprung up, promising to turn mediocre students into scholastic achievers by using a blend of accelerated learning methods, outdoor adventure and pop psychology. They learn how to memorize, new strategies for test taking and how to gain confidence in themselves. That makes a big difference.
- The Wall Street Journal
SuperCamp is a model learning environment. This program gives a student the feeling that they're in cooperation with a team and they're really kind of quarterbacking their own education to a larger degree than they realized before. - CNN
According to graduates and instructors, the 10-day program has proved to be an awakening for students to their academic and social potentials they can use this experience the rest of their lives. - Boston Globe
The program stresses personal as much as academic development meant to help students develop self-confidence they can apply to tackling schoolwork.
- Los Angeles Times
SuperCamp hopes to teach self-confidence, teamwork and especially how to recognize and surpass barriers to success. - Chicago Tribune
