After six weeks at Camp Pocono Trails, my two sons returned home last night. Though we could see some changes online and sense some change over the phone we were in no way prepared for the amazing transformation that occurred. The physical changes are astounding. They are both strong, thin, and healthy looking. But far more important to us our their changes in character and personality. They are both more confident, self assured, humble, and active. Their lives and the lives of our family have been transformed forever. Both came home with a wealth of knowledge about nutrition, cooking, and fitness. Not only did they know things that they had never cared about prior but they were eager to live out and continue their new lifestyle at home. I sent off two boys and at the end of the summer CPT sent back two charming and self assured young men. As a former Camp Administrator, I have been continually impressed with the attitude, organization, and work ethic of Tony and his staff
I have sent my son and daughter to CPT for the last 4 summers and they will be attending again this summer. It is the most amazing camp for children. It is really heartbreaking as parents to deal with an overweight child(s) and not know how to fix the problem while trying everything. Sending them to CPT is the answer..... The first year they lost so much weight and gained so much confidence in themselves which was and is life changing for them. The summers that followed were the same, and I'm so proud to tell you my children are in the top physical and mental condition ever. I send them back to CPT because it is also a fun, exciting, healthy environment and they want to be there each summer among their friends. Please, make the investment in your child’s healthy future and look into a summer of CPT for your child. It is the one investment that will pay you back for ever. Thank you so much Tony and your wonderful caring staff!!!
I WOULD NEVER EVER send my child back to this camp.He was yelling and saying that it was my fault my child was sick when i was not even there!! He has some serious problems and should not be around children. Also it costs $8,000 dollars for 2 weeks it is to much just for a weight loss camp. My opinion would bee not to even step near this camp if you care at all for your child. The consolers paid no attention at all to my girls and did not stop them from getting teased. They came home feeling worse about themselves then before!! SAVE YOUR MONEY AND GET A PERSONAL TRAINER OR SOMETHING!! UNLESS YOU WANT YOUR CHILD TO GET SICK THENTHE MANAGER WILL BLAME YOU! SAVE YOUR BREATHE AND YOUR MONEY AND GO SOMEWHERE ELSE!!!
Overall, a very good experience for our 11 year old. She liked the food and the counselors. Some of the campers have severe psychological issues and attend because they need to lose 100 lbs. She learned a lot, ate very good food, took nutrition classes, was busy all day, called home twice a week. She said she wants to go back next year. The counselors were amazing. THey were very safety oriented and seemed to care for our daughter a lot. I think Tony, the owner, could be a little more warm and fuzzy and not so intimidating. It is a big camp. Not every one knows your name, like smaller camps. However, when I called to check on her, they were responsive and helpful. Our daughter learned new skills, new exercise, nutrition, how to care for herself. Overall we were very impressed with the camp and the structure. There are a lot of activities. There was definitely some girl camper drama which took away from the experience. The camp handled it well however.
omg this is the best camp ever i met lots of friends and my boyfriend and we are still together i love it the so much fun cant wait till summ i am going for 4 weeks but i want to go to 7 weeks but who knows
this camp has changed my life for the better. i am 14 and it was my first summer and i can not thank tony enough. of coarse there were clicks but were is there not. you make so many true friends you learn how to eat and workout. i am going back for the 2k11 summer. yes, it is pricy but it is worth it.. i can not stress this enough if your child is over weight send them here. and once your home the support does not stop. tony calls you to see how you are doing. i just had a phone call with him about a week ago.. so its an amazing place.. <3
My 2 kids have spent two summers at this AMAZING camp. They have lost so much weight, gained so much confidence, and can't wait to go back next summer. They love CPT. Parents, if you ever had to deal with other kids calling your child "fat" and trying to help them lose weight and get healthy with little or no results, DO THIS FOR THEM!!! The results are really fantastic. It is so worth the cost. The camp and staff are so caring. You kids will become the best they can be. Slim, healthy, altheltic, confident, and no longer will they be called "fat" again. CPT is the BEST weight loss camp and I'm so thankful I sent my kids there....It works..This is the one gift you can give them that will change their live forever..
facilities are gross, and lowered my childs self image. I sent my daughter here to boost her self image, and she came home with lower self confidence then when she went in. I have invested time in sending her to a private trainer 3 times a week as well as nutritionist. This has boosted her perspective on herself immensely unlike CPT. Please, this camp is terrible, spare your child.
I have been going to this camp for 7 years.. It is the best gift my parents have given me.. It changed me inside and out . I continue to go even though i no longer need to loose the weight. the staff and people are amazing. best camp out there
This is the best camp I have ever sent my child to. He made great friends lost weight and gained a new self image. The staff was friendly and very helpful and my child will return next summer.
This camp is ah-mazing! The care they put into each person and how they feel about themselves is incredible. Food is amazing and the people i met there will be in my heart for the rest of my life. I love cpt!
