Camp Scatico reviews

horrible. too sporty for me .. food was bad too and not enough freedom

it was the best summer of my life. The peopple there are like one big family. i will stop coming back to scatico. inters 09. I LOVE SCATICO!!!!!!!

i went to scatico for an intercamp and it was horrible everything was spread out, the people never interacted, the campers and counselors were mean and the food was horrible i hated it we ran to the bus so we get out of their quick enough....... try schodack!

what to say first..... Scatico is my second home and will always be. I have been going there for nine years and plenty more summers to come with outstanding memories. I don't have any sisters but i have 11 actually they are my darling soopers of 09.It helps you make wonderfull friendships. Sure you might have some problems but being with the same people for 7 weeks makes you truly know someone for who they are. The staff is wonderful they help you with so much stuff and it doesn't have to be about camp. The activities don't sound fun but just being with the people you are closest too i guarantee you will make it fun. BY far Scatico has made me who i am today with the lasting friendships. I look forward to it every year when i am down. It just gets me happy again. At home when someone brings up a story i think of a similar story but it happened at camp with my sisters. I love Camp Scatico and by far it is the best place on earth. S2K9 ONE LOVE.

Camp scaticoooo where can i begin. it is the best place ever in the entireee world. soooo many memories and the best inside jokes everrr. there is no ther camp i rather go 2!!!!! s2k9= LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Where do I begin - Camp Scatico is by far the most amazing place in the entire world. It is my second home but it is the one thing I look forward to every year. This year it will be my 6th summer, the most amazing summer of my life. Camp Scatico is the place where I made my best friends in the entire world and the friends I know I will have my entire life. There is nothing wrong with Scatico, everything is perfect just the way it is. This really is my favorite place in the entire world and I couldnt imagine my life without it. I LOVE SOOPERS OF 2009.

Camp Scatico is my second home. This will be my sixth summer there and the friendships and memories I've made there will last forever. Scatico is an amazing place and i love it so much. The girls in my division are not only my best friends but my family. We're always there for each other through everything. The traditions and activities are so much fun and you'll never be bored. Everyone is so welcoming and friendly and if you go here you will have the best summers of your life. You will find yourself missing this place and all your friends during the year, and you'll count down the days till opening day the next summer. SOOPERS 2009 ARE AMAZING ♥

i love camp scatico. its my second home. the friends i have made there will last a life time. i talk to them everyday knowing i can trust them. send your kids to scatico, it will be one of the best descisions you will ever make

let me just start off by saying that camp scatico is the best camp ever and my favorite place to be in the whole wide world. i love everything about it. the people and expierences you have at scatico will be the ones you remember your whole life. the people here are amazing. the girls in my group are not just friends, but my sisters. we have so much fun everyday and i never get bored when im with them. scatico is the best camp by far. its on beautiful land and has the most awesome lake to make a splash in on a hot august day. the activities at scatico are amazing as well. there will never be an uneventful moment when youre here.there are tons of things to do here and the fun never stops. this camp is the best thing thats happened to me. so, if youre considering sending someone here, i highly reccommend it. he/she will not be dissappointed and will have the time of their life! ps: s2k9 = life.

Camp Scatico is the most amazing place on earth. I have made some friends that will last forever and ever. You can listen to people who just say its a very nice place, but its much more than that; it's been built up into a home and a family. I love this camp probably more than anything in the world and would do anything for it. Our alma mater is true, I know for me, at least, that over the winter years i think or nothing other than this place and wish i was there. " At summers end, our hearts will still remain". That is completely true. Camp Scatico always will be my second home.

not only is camp scatico the BEST CAMP EVER, it is my favorite place on earth. the people, activities, food, and EVERYTHING are just perfect. I could ask for nothing more. i have lived with the girls in my group for atleast 5 summers and they are not just friends, but FAMILY. i love them and camp is so fun. it is FANTASTIC and a great place to spend your time in the summer. PS: S2K9 -> life.

camp scatico is the most amazing camp there is. it' where i met my best friends in the entire world and theres nothing like the memories you make there. scatico has so many unique traditions that just make it so amazing. everyone is welcomed no matter if its your first year or your 10th. i cannot wait to be a sooper this summer. although it is my last year as a camper, it definitely will not be my last summer at my second home.

Now adays most camps have lots of modern stuff that really ruins the sence of being at an actual camp. Camp Scatico however is tthe BEST camp in the world. Scatico is traditional, warm, and welcoming. Anyone who disagrees probley didn't try hard enough to get into the sense of a camp. Scatico is heaven on earth, it is the best thing ever! I have made so many friends that are my best. We are all a family connected by this summer home. Camp Scatico remains a camp that does not have bratty people within the gorgeous campus. People at scatico work hard to get what they want. The whole camp is united over a common goal, which is to HAVE FUN. Im in love with this camp!

This is the best camp evr!!!!! The girls in my devision are not only my best friends but they are also my SISTERS!!!!!! I count down the minuits until august 17!!!!! love you debies 08!!!!!!

I went to camp Scatico for 8 years and with no exaggeration it made me into the well rounded person that I am today. To the kids who claimed they were made fun of and that the staff was uncaring, guess what, I was that kid that got made fun of too. If you cant learn to deal with other people and what they think of you then you wont make it though life let alone camp; thats what Scatico did for me. Along with bringing me together with the guys that to this day (13 years later) I still concider to be my brothers, it also taught me to grow up and how to deal with people in the real world. To the parents who claim the facilities are out dated, did you ever think its like that for a reason? Pools are unnecessary, and the lack of e-mail is an atempt to make children realize they shouldnt be dependent on technology and to bond with their bunkmates. Overall, I belive that Scatico is the last camp that still has some real values to teach their campers. - JK US2K

My three daughters have attended this camp for many years. My oldest is now a counselor and my other two are campers. They live for the day that camp starts. They have all made lifelong friends and feel like Scatico is a second home to them. I have many friends who have kids that have gone to other camps (some more expensive) and none of them have had the positive experience that my girls have had. I highly recommend it.

THIS IS GOING TO BE MY THIRD SUMMER AT SCATICO-AND THE THREE SUMMERS HAVE BEEN THE BEST SUMMER OF MY LIFE!! THE STAFF AND THE CAMPERS ARE SOOO AWESOME-AND THE BEST PEOPLE YOU WILL EVER MEET!!! I WOULD DEFINATELY CHOOSE SCATICO ABOVE ALL OTHER CAMPS BECAUSE IT IS THE BEST CAMP ON EARTH!!!!!!! ANYONE WHO WANTS TO GO TO SLEEPAWAY CAMP SHOULD CHOOSE THIS CAMP AND WILL HAVE THE BEST SUMMERS UNTIL WHATEVER AGE!!! SCATICO FOR LIFE!!!!!<3333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333

The kids seem to love this camp adn go back year after year. Many of teh parents of campers also went there as kids. My daughter goes there and loves it. She cannot wait to go back. I do think that they are not as progressive as other camps. They do not allow email, they do not have pools, and they dont have as many water sports as other camps. I think that they may need to understand some of what other camps offer and make some improvements. Also the staff are very variable, some are very caring and others have favorites who can do no wrong. This is not a good example for the kids and encourages bad behaviors. David the owner is fantastic but not true of all the leadership team.

My experience of the campwas mixed. I loved the kids but hated the staff. They were mean and uncaring.

Scatico for me has always been my home away from home. The beautiful campus and the amazing staff is why I came back year after year. It's the friendships I've made over the years that I value the most. My camp friends have become my best friends and we keep in touch throughout the year.

Nothing more to say then it is my home away from home and always will be. Every once in a while theres a person everybody dislikes but rarely. Whoever says bad about scatico is quite brainless. Color war breaks your heart in four days at. Full camp capture the flag on boys side is awsemome. Need i say ore i hope not SCATICO ROCKS (Except DJ Jeff)

To who ever sayed that this camp is bad or suck, you must be on something because this camp rocks I use to go in the summer with my camp.I HAD A GREAT TIME.and manhunt in camp scatico is the best.but a little scary but rocks.CAMP SCATICO IS THE BEST

Do not go here. My first summer here and my only summer was horrible. The other campers and counselors made fun of me. The first year is supposed to be welcoming and friendly.

I love this Camp!!! Even though I had Trouble at the beginning, I made a lot of new friends. My friend from school might come for a summer so i am really excited!!!! Go Scatico!!!!

I LOVE CAMP SCATICO!!!!!!! Whoever doesn't like this camp needs help because i have never been somewhere with so many amazing people. MY first day there i made a zillion friends. The counselors are all really nice. Everyday is so fun especially tribes and color war days!! But my favorite day by far is DJ JEFF!!! Scatico is the best camp ever and i it will always be in my heart! i can never forget my great times there! I LOVE CAMP SCATICO!!!!!!!!!

I was there last summer as a member of kitchen stuff. I liked it, it was my best summer ever (maybe because of the fact that it's america). People are great there! facilities for stuff could be better and more days-off(but it's ok).

This is the best place ever. Everyone is friendly and kind and no matter what age you are and how long you've been there, everyone has an amazing time. This will be my seventh summer and i dont know what i would do with out Scatico in my life. The friendships and the bonds will aways last. My home away from home.

There isnt a place in the world that makes me happier than scatico. The relationships I have built can never be replaced. Everything about scatico is amazing. This will be my 5th summer of love happiness and memories, and i hope to one day send my children here to feel the happiness i feel when i am at scatico

I spend 10 months looking foward to the 2 months i spend at scatico. The memories and friends i have made are irraplacable. Everyone knows everyone and there isnt a place in the world that makes me happier. its like we're one giant family.

I went to this camp for 4 years. This is the worst summer i had because my councelor always yelled at me and had favorites. At tribes kids a couple of years older than me made me sit in the hot sun to memorize songs. i cried a lot. i hated my summer. Don't send your kids here to have a good summer.

it is the greatest place on earth. Friendly environment, friendly people, just a great place.

Had the best time of my life.

Quite possibly the worst camp in the US. The kids are bratty, and the staff pretentious. The salary is atrocious as well.

it doesn't get better than scatico. made me who i am today!

i was a camper and a staff member. best summers of my life!

Many wonderful years were spent at Scatico.

This camp is the BEST!!! Everyone at Scatico is nice, and you are treated like family. I just came home from my third summer at Scatico and I plan on going back for many more years. The activities are great, like swimming, soccer, drama, and ceramics. Special activities include Tribes, Color War, Sing, Birthday Ball, and Carnival. After spending a summer at Scatico you won't want to go home.

greatest camp ever. it has helped me grow up so much and i've had amazing summers.

make the right choice, dont go here either for work or being a camper. you really dont wanna go, trust me.

I am a [former] camper, just coming back from her Sooper summer, and I can honestly say that this camp is where I grew up. I have never made friends so incredible or learned so much about myself as a person than I have at Camp Scatico. This is a place for tradition, recreation, and above all, love. Nothing can describe a summer at Scatico unless one has experienced it. "At summer's end, our hearts will still remain..."

This past summer was my 9th summer, i attended from 6 years old to 14 years old and it has been the best times of my life. The friendships i have made are un-forgettable. Scatico is my home and will always be, i grew up, matured,and learned life lessons there. If you want to give your children or loved ones the best gift that could ever be given send them to scatico. It has changed my life forever, these few words cant possibly portray the amount that i appreciate what this small camp has done for me.

Heaven on Earth.

ugh worst summer of my life. never coming back. freakin horrible. scatico? more like i dont wanna go

This camp is heaven on earth, this is the best camp ever. There is not one bad aspect of this camp. I recommend this camp for everyone!

Its the best camp ever!

THE BEST PLACE IN THE WORLD!

Best camp in the universe.

i <3333333333 it! totally not a jap camp. parents definatly get their money's worth. make great friends. have toooooooooons of fun. VERY few girls who are mean. one to be exact but she left. everyone loves it. great activities like sports,swimming,arts & crafts, ceramics, pioneering, color war, and horseback riding. (but horseback riding is extra but great) this camp is for non-jappy people who love camp and being outdoors. i would give this camp a 10000000000000000% awsome! if you do not like it you are crazy or are not liked by the campers in your bunk. trips include a hike, one to the beach or a cruise,(depending on age), and a big trip. you also have a camp out. tribes and color war are always a blast. kids will LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE it with a capital L-O-V-E!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! there is nothing to dislike. the food is great. the people are nice. i HIGHLY recommend it. it should be on your list not matter what. the boys camp is just as good as the girls camp.<333333

If you are a prospective international staff member researching your new camp then i can promise you that you will have a great time at Scatico. If you are a parent then you have found a great camp to send your child away for the summer to. Scatico is like a second home for me and i can not recommend it more as a place to grow and nurture kids in a safe environment. It is not a pressure cooker camp orientated around Athletics but if that's what you want you will find it here. There really is something for everyone at Scatico.

this camp is the greatest camp in the world it has a great staff and everyone knows everyone its like a family this camp is so good that most staff were former campers so they obviously love it
