STAFF EXPERIENCE: Do not work here. I repeat, do NOT work here. They are so disorganized! Try having to plan for classes a week in advance but not getting the schedule until after your first class of the week gets there. It isn't a good system for the campers and it definitely ins't a good system for the staff. Think twice before sending your kids here and think at all about working here.

The staff here are great. Everything else? Not so much. The facilities are terrible! Don't believe me? Check out the showers in the bath house behind the kitchen. Yes, your children are expected to shower in those. (If you don't have time to tour, imagine years of mold and dirt left to sit and slowly climb its way up the walls. They do not clean anything there.) The organization is appalling. No one talks to anyone in senior staff. This causes so many problems and really is frustrating for children AND counselors. For how much this camp costs, you are better off sending your child ANYWHERE else. Unless management seriously changes, you're wasting your money on this camp.

Camp Henry Horner is my favorite place to go every single summer. I have been going for 11 summers now and have a blast every single year. Each week we go on a field trip to different places, so that makes it exciting. We sometimes ocasionally have overnighters which are my absolute favorite at CHH. The staff are amazing and many come from England and Australia which makes it fun to learn new things about them. The food is great especially the pasta on Fridays! The pool, lake, and ropes course are my favorite things to do. My one suggestion is that they should redo the bathrooms. I try not to spend much time in there. Other then that THIS CAMP IS AMAZING. I have made my best friends here.

I've gone to Henry Horner for three years. It's a great camp. I'm planning on going next year and then becoming a counselor.

I went there for 5 years. Everything there is amazing. You never have too much fun there. The staff is always alert, and come from other countries. Its very diverse. Theres no place like CHH.

It is a pretty good camp. It is a really big camp but it has many many different fun activites. Like horner idol, green and white day, the Olympics and many more. The only thing I don't like about the camp is that it is a 45 minute drive down there. I love the staff the r so nice .

CHH is my favorite place in the world. Spent 4 years as a camper and made new friends that are now my best friends. The staff is fantastic, and you stay in touch with the overseas staff that you became friends with. So much to do, this place is the best.
