Summer camp experiences are proven to help young people become more confident and independent while developing important skills that will help them be successful in school and in life. Many Crossroads campers experience significant transformations over the course of one session and you will see the proof of our effort in their success. Even more, many Crossroads staff and campers return year after year, allowing you to see how your impact multiples as you both grow and evolve together.
