Good Parents Usually Hesitate.
If you’re hesitating about camp…
You’re not overthinking.
You care.
Because no thoughtful parent makes a decision lightly when it involves sending their kid away for a week.
You’re not just signing them up for activities.
Why Parents Hesitate About Overnight Camp
You’re most likely asking important questions like:
Will they be safe?
Will they belong?
Will this help them grow into a better person?
Good questions like these are proof you care.
You know your kid is being formed every day.
By screens.
By peers.
By culture.
The question isn’t if they’ll be shaped.
It’s how.
What Overnight Summer Camp Can Do for Kids
But what if your hesitation led to something more? One thing we have seen over the last 70 years is that growth often begins with a small step of courage — for campers and for parents.
At Camp Firwood, we build camp to be deeply fun and deeply formative. A place where students build confidence, real friendships, and a stronger sense of who they are — whether they come with strong faith or simple curiosity.
It’s a place that helps your child grow into who they were created to be.
Here’s something to wonder about:
