Surprise Lake Camp
April 7, 2011

Surpise Lake Camp is by far a one of a kind place. It has shaped my life in a number of ways. I highly recommend this camp. It is a special place that will be part of your life forever. Once you are apart of it, you become part of this amazing SLC family.

The Great!

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

To say, Surprise Lake Camp is a family tradition, is an understatement See, my parents were counselors in the summer of '69 on teenside. That summer changed their lives forever. They met, fell in love and two years later they were married. This year they will be celebrating their 40th wedding anniversary. In 1977, I was born and then my sister in 1980. Being part of this organization shaped me into the person I am today. I learned to be an independent person at SLC. In addition, I have a love of Judaism

Ways to make it better...

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

I would not make any changes. SLC has been around since 1902. They change with the times, and continue to stick to their core values and mission statement. What other camp do you know that has been around over 100 years?
