Member Testimonials
My son loved it! He was excited about each new theme, the staff was patient and the activities engaged him.
Our daughter loved her experience here. To us it doesn't seem like a job for the counselors, it seems more like a passion. A very happy place to be.
My daughter is really enjoying the Explorer's Camp program. One thing I would like to see improved would be better communication between the the program and the parents. For example, the kids went to Jenkinson's Boardwalk the other day, and we weren't sure if we should pack a bathing suit and towel or not, so we brought everything. A clear, straight forward pack list would be amazing for trip days.
Coach was very friendly
YBA was amazing! My son spend 5 week with the camp and first- learned a lot, second- he made friends, third- further developed his love for this sport. The couches are hands on and you can tell that they care. OLL is also a great location. I guess the only downside to the location is how hot it is inside. AC would have been nice. Or perhaps more sprinkler days. Also, big plus when you introduced one quick pool trip. Two of them a week or just a bit longer than 30 would be nicer. All good- we are happy with everything.
My son liked it
Our experience with the camp has been wonderful. My daughter comes home every day with exciting stories about her adventures. She particularly enjoyed the swimming sessions t the Y.
I want to commend the incredible staff. The counselors have been exceptional, always greeting us with warm smiles and making the kids feel valued and cared for.
Overall, our experience has been overwhelmingly positive.
Thank you once again for all that you do. We are already looking forward to next summer and the wonderful experiences it will bring.
The consistency of the schedule with the infusion of new, fun things to do every week kept my camper very happy!
My son loved the camp. He is excited to go everyday and has a good time.
We had a fantastic summer at New Discoveries! The counselors and staff were all friendly, approachable and seemed to really enjoy being there with the kids. Everyone was very welcoming and accommodating to special requests. The activities kept my children engaged and having fun. All of my children met new friends and really blossomed this summer. Thank you for everything!
The staff. They're wonderful: kind, supporting, caring.
My son loves New Adventures camp! From the program activities, to the counselors and his old and new friends! Last year he went to 2 different camps and asked to return only to New Adventures! The director is always present and available and they are responsive and keep our kids entertained and happy!
New Discoveries camp is a wonderful youth program for kids. Our daughter loves attending and the staff is fantastic. We only hope that we are able to get a spot in next year’s camp.
Lots of water play and swimming classes! My son can’t wait to go every morning! He is so excited to share with us what happened at camp everyday.
They got chances to play water and swim.
I like that the kids have a set schedule
My son had a great time. It's too bad that the 3-week heat wave kept the kids indoors more than I would have liked. But I think the kids and the camp counselors made the best of it.
Our kids have now had two wonderful summers at New Discoveries. They have learned how to be better swimmers, made new friends and always come home happy with their day. The counselors are thoughtful and clearly care. 10/10 highly recommend.
The field trips and variety of activities throughout the session.
Wonderful!
My son had a great time, so much so that he requested to go back for an additional week.
New Discoveries has been a great camp for my son! The camp counselors and staff have been all wonderful. I wish that we would get pictures of videos from the different weeks to see the kids in action for memories, but other than that my son has been liking his time and experience here.
It offers a variety of meaningful activities for the children, such as Science, STEM, music, and swim amongst other things. It has a balance of learning and fun.
It is very organized and as parents we can meet the counselors, which I like. The kids have plenty of space to play in the yard and they like the themes and special activities.
This year has been great. Our head counselor in room 11 Miss Ashley has been fantastic. The kids love her. The rest of the counselors feel engaged and excited to be there. Miss Beverly is also the best. My son is having a great summer.
The weekly trips add a new experience each week. Gives the kids something to look forward to.
My daughter loves the themes each week, the counselors and the swimming. This is her second year in a row and she comes home excited each day.
My daughter loves this camp every year! Such wonderful and attentive staff.
My son had a structured day which helped reinforce some of the same structure he learned at school. He also had great success with swimming.

Great staff!
