Camp Shane is the best place on earth!
by erin_canada

The summers that I have spent at Camp Shane have been the best days of my life and I wouldn’t trade the experience for anything. Children who are fortunate enough to go to any camp are very lucky, but those who have the opportunity to go to Camp Shane are more than lucky, they are blessed. Camp Shane really does work!

From the eyes of a staff member

I set out from Texas not having a clue what to expect and basing all of my assumptions on it's website. When I got there I was delighted. FACT that no matter what part of the United States you reside in, the camp that is portrayed on the website is indeed the camp that you are paying for and sending your child to. I plan on going back and would urge anyone else be that parent, camper or staff member to do the same.

A camp that can truly change your life

Having never attended a camp before, I was apprehensive when first arriving at Camp Shane last summer. I had no idea when I walked through their gates for the very first time that I was embarking on the most amazing summer of my life. I was immediately welcomed with open arms, and this was just the welcoming for the staff.

Go to Shane and you won't want to leave. The summer of a lifetime!!!

I can truly say that the past two summers as Counselor to the boys, have been the most amazing of my life. Camp Shane is labeled a weight loss camp, but I do not see overweight children. I see kids who have made a healthy decision to change their lifestyle and venture to New York for a fun-filled summer of laughter and friends. Personally, I would recommend this camp to anyone because it truly captures the heart of all, and makes you want to come back for more.

My favorite Home away from home-Camp Shane
by pudgiepeople

I have 50 years of camping experience as a camper, counselor, group leader, and head counselor. I have worked at Camp Shane for 9 summers as a head counselor. Most of the children love the camp atmosphere and truly enjoy themselves. I would give this camp a 5 star rating. If I didn't like it, I would never have gone back for those 9 years.

So Rewarding...

Being a camper at Camp Shane did wonders for me. I was a camper for five summers and this past summer I was a counselor for the first time. At Shane, everyone is accepted and it doesn't matter what you look like on the outside, it's whats on the inside that counts. I saw girls and guys who never had a boyfriend or girlfriend before, get one, friendships being made, and sports tried for the first time because at home they were scared they would get made fun of.

Camp Shane- a magical place for 35 years.

When I was told of Camp Shane by my parents I thought it was as if I was quarantined. I was completely mortified and I made sure people knew NOT of where I was going. When we pulled off the exit to the camp I remember my mother saying “I hope we find it.” I remember thinking I hope we NEVER find it. That never happened. Little did I know the greatest years of my life would be spent right in this very place.

BEST FEELING EVER

I have worked at Camp Shane for two summers, and they have both been amazing. The people i met at Shane each summer were so amazing. I never knew people like this existed. I am hoping to go back again... truly an unforgettable summer... and great experience for kids and adults!

Camp Shane works

Camp Shane has many successes getting overweight & underactive kids moving, thinning down and gaining confidence. Many kids who have always felt left out finally feel that they belong. Kids have such a great time and make such great friends that they keep coming back even when they've achieved their goal weight.
