Summer Camp Testimonials

Lynn Hansen - Parent
All three of my children have attended SKYHIGH Adventure Camp. When my oldest son attended for the first year, I was very nervous because he could not ride his bike very well and he was very cautious about trying new things. At the end of the first week, he was riding his bike around the pump track and climbing obstacles I never thought he would even attempt.
John and Kathy build the kid’s confidence to try “really hard” things in a safe environment. From swimming in the pool to open water swimming in a lake. From biking around their yard to “Century Rides” (100 miles) to Massachusetts. From swinging on one of the ninja obstacles to climbing the warp wall - the experience has been amazing in every way.

My children can’t wait to go to camp every summer and after starting with just a week or two each summer now attend every week and love the adventures, the experiences, and the lasting friendships they make.”

Rob Hollinger - Athlete, Camper & Coach

SKYHIGH Adventures was my first summer camp, my first job, and my first triathlon. Camp facilitated a safe, supportive environment in which I was free to push the boundaries of what I thought I could do.

John and his team of coaches guided me in becoming a deep water swimmer, gave me the confidence to ride my bike over obstacles and cover distances I would have thought impossible before, and showed me a new enjoyment for competitive sport.

The foundation of a strong work ethic, treating others with respect, and making sport the most fun it could be was set from the early days as a camper and is something I have taken with me for many years.

When I graduated from Camp, I came back for several summers, first as a Coach In Training, and then as a Coach. As a coach, I had the opportunity to share my experiences and love for the sport with a new set of campers every year. I was also able to take on greater responsibility and build myself up as a part of a team working to deliver the best experience to campers we could.

Helping to lead a week-long bike ride across the state of New York and another along the length of Cape Cod have stayed with me not just for the journey, but for the relationships and connections I was able to make with campers and staff along the way.

Since my days with SKYHIGH Adventures, I went on to run competitively throughout college and then returned to triathlon, where I have been racing competitively since. The Multi-Sport lifestyle that I learned as a camper has helped me make lifelong friends, travel in search of competition or training grounds, and buy a few more bikes than most would think one might need.

Kelly & Dustin - Parents

"Four summers ago my daughter started at SKYHIGH, unable to ride a bike without training wheels or swim.

By the end of the summer she was able to do both!

Each year she goes back not only does she get stronger, but she gets more resilient,
more optimistic and becomes more of a team player.

Every year she looks forward to the fun she’s going to have and proudly tells everyone that she is a triathlete."

Paul K. - Parent

SKYHIGH Adventures hasn't only mentored my daughter's at summer camp, they have also volunteered their time helping with several bike rodeo's at my daughter's school and neighboring events.

John, Kathy and their staff are some of the most amazing people I have met in my life.
I will never forget the first open house; As I was walking around, not only did I want to send my children, I really wanted to sign myself up too!

They bring a whole new meaning to a structured summer adventure camp.
I highly recommend John and SKYHIGH Adventures Summer Camp to give your children a camp they will remember for the rest of their lives.
