My two campers LOVE Camp Frank A. Day. They want to add more sessions each summer. It has been a great experience for them, and they can not wait until this summer. The staff is fantastic and really cares about the campers.

I've been sending my 2 kids to CFAD for 5 years now. They rave about the counselors, who I've had a chance to meet during "observation days". Let's see if I can get this right- Caroline (a red headed counselor) is a favorite amongst both my kids because she has comforted my youngest during a swim lesson, took her cabin on a special boat trip, & taught my nervous son how to successfully waterski! What a feat, because our son plays tough, but is afraid of deep water! She was delightful when we met her in person. She even took us out on the boat during "observation day" to show us our son's skiing. Julia, counselor of my youngest daughter, helped our daughter through homesick nights. She was a true gem when we met in person at drop off and pick up. We were nervous about leaving our daughter because she is picky about her caretakers. Julia was lovely and capable. In sum, Camp Day is ideal if you are invested in the care that your children are receiving. Truly, wonderful.

it was my first year at camp, and i was a little homesick, but the staff where very nice and made me feel better. The bathrooms where dirty and it was common to get hit by water balloons when you stepped out of the shower. the activities where fun and you had a veriety to choose from. it was easy for me to make freinds and i never got picked on. I look foward to the next summer at camp frank a day.

I hated this camp, it was so boring and un-clean. It's just not a place you want to spend time in. The counselors are not involved with the kids and most of the kids are mean to eachother. Not a pleasureable expierience.

when i think about this camp i almost cry... Not because i miss it but it was such a horrible expirience. It was way too overpriced and the counselors did not care about us, they just went and drank alchohaul in the woods. I found the camp overall just boring and a waste of time

this camp was not a pleasurable expeirience for me because it is so focused on color day. If you do not like color day it will not be fun because everything at this camp is based on it. i found the counselors to be very mean and did not treat the kids fairly. This camp also does not give you enough time to just relax they have too many activities

This is the worst camp. Sending my daughter there was the worst experience of my whole life! Everyone was mean and she cried for 3 days after coming home! Everyone there was snobish towards me when I came to pick her up, and she came home with an infection!

Camp Frank A. Day isn't just a camp, its a home. I have had soooo many good times in just 2 weeks of being there. Every morning when i wake up, its the first thing on my mind. CFAD is my mind, my body, my spirit, and has made my life better in every way. I have mad life long friends... scratch that, brothers and sisters at CFAD. You will love it... guarantied.

Are you kidding me? Best summers of my life! Not too sure who is running it now, but, if Dick McKnight is still there .... I am sure that that tradition and spirit of "crazy dan" still flourishes.

You can't put this camp into words. You need to experience it for yourself. Countless friends and the fondest memories is what you leave with, both being a camper and staff.... it's amazing.

Camp Frank A. Day allows kids to be who they want to be. Children learn about themselves and can accomplish things in life that they may have never gotten the chance to, unless they attended Camp Day. Everyone can be a beacon light!

Camp Day is truly a place to grow. I spent the best summers of my childhood there, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Camp Day creates lasting bonds between campers, counselors and staff members. Besides its scenic location and ample activities for campers, Camp Day provides a learning atmosphere as well. Campers are taught to respect differences and work together toward common goals. In addition, we are all told to be a Beacon Light a guiding force for our peers, not only at camp, but also in our daily lives. Camp Day provided me with knowledge I still bear upon today, and the summers I spent there will never be forgotten.

Camp Day is an amazing place to spend your summer. Whether it's sailing on the lake, making candles in arts & crafts, playing sports, or just hanging with your friends, there is just so much to do at Camp Day. The staff there is just so amazing. They are very attentive when ever they are with the kids. The staff does a great job of getting the campers involved in activities. The atmosphere of Camp Day is so contagious and upbeat. The food is great, and if you are a fan of salid-you won't be dissapointed with our salad bar. Camp Day is steeped in tradition and is truly "A Great Place To Grow."

Camp Frank A. Day is, as it says, "A Great Place to Grow." The staff are always attentive, and the activities are always being re-vamped so that nothing is ever exactly the same. The property is beautiful, including the lake. There's something for everyone here, which I think is a unique quality. Send your children here, and you'll see that they, and you, will grow to love it just as much as the hundreds of thousands of campers, staff, and parents have since 1916.

Camp Frank A Day is great! They are getting new facilities every year. The staff are great! I love the home away from home, safe family atmosphere. I have seen tremendous growth in both family and friends that have attended this camp. The food is great, the people are great and the camp directors, Dick and Sonya are great, you feel safe leaving your kids for the summer. It is like leaving your kids with family.
