Review for Snowbird Outfitters Inc, Andrews, NC, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I was immediately impressed from the moment I arrived at SWO. The counselors attack vans with enthusiasm and help campers load their rooms. They get to know names and fun facts about every individual at the first step on campus. The breakout session leaders are so knowledgeable. They offer all sorts of activities: paint ball, horseback riding, tubing, rafting, ropes courses, etc. They have healthy meals. The camp is very giving. The workers all live off of the meals and lodging of the camp and do not have extra money or possessions. The workers are all their to make the campers' experiences one of a kind. They are not their to be self-serving or to be successful business people. I was so glad to see what SWO does for the community it serves.

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

My kids experienced safe, outdoor fun. They were able to see how life can be lived free of drugs and negative peer pressure. They also went out into the community to serve by picking up trash, pulling weeds, and doing other helpful things for the town.

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

I would give the camp more funding to add more ropes courses and make it a law that everyone has to attend this camp at least once in their lifetime!

Role:  Volunteer & I came as a youth leader (participant) with a junior high youth group. .
