Why do visitors at Schodack make this comment time and time again?

We think it is because Schodack is committed to creating an environment that seeks to bring out the absolute best in children, and in doing so we attract like-minded families looking for a certain set of values.

What are these values that are like an antidote to our rough and tumble 21st century life? Well, core to our beliefs are that active participation matters, kindness counts and sportsmanship underscores everything we do. A brief example: after a game of soccer or a fun arts and crafts period, Schodack campers naturally thank their instructors. This simple appreciation is one small example of the Schodack way of doing things.

Because Schodack brings out the best of childhood, because campers thrive in our culture-of-kindness, they do not miss their TV's, computers, cell phones, and electronic games. They are in an environment that stresses simplicity, sharing, lots of laughter and exciting challenges. Campers feel safe, loved, and appreciated—Schodack becomes like a second home.

And it shows. Most of our 130 staff grew up at Schodack and believe in what is stands for. Schodack is committed to its small size—just 270 campers—our family atmosphere and amazing traditions.
