Parent Reviews and Testimonials

“Camp Galileo was both of my kids’ favorite camp last summer. They loved the staff and brought home amazing projects, including a water blaster that my daughter designed, built, and used all summer.” -Emily D.

“ He was only there for one week but he was able to open up to his camp counselors and even with other children in his group. He had a great time, learned, was eager to go in the mornings. Smiles all the way. He even taught me some of their camp chants/songs. What a great way to spend a few weeks in the summer.” -Jennifer C.

“What an amazing week! My daughter is shy and sensitive, and she had an incredible time! She was embraced by the incredibly kind staff and thrived during the week! Her counselor, Kenny, is precious, patient, kind, and they had a deep impact in my little girl. Meghan, the camp director got back to me quickly, and was so helpful! Totally would hire that woman go run anything! Thank you all so much for all your all your hard work, love, and attention” -Michelle D.
