“After struggling to find the right fit camp for my 10-year-old, I can joyously say we have found her summer place! The culture of HVC is truly special - she was welcomed with open arms into a cabin of kids who had been together already for 1-2 years. Every activity seemed to honor her unique spirit and interests while instilling an authentic sense of connection and community. HVC feels like camp was when I was growing up - just a simpler time. She can’t wait to go back!”
