The greatest camp on earth! My brother went there in the 70s. I went there in the 80s. My sons went there in the 2010s. People talk about Pok-O spirit and it is real. The sense of community, caring, support and bonding is incredible, but the proof is in the unlimited fun everyone has there. Pok-O is in one of the most beautiful spots in the US, gives kids access to the best of the best in outdoor experience in the Adirondacks, and lets kids gain amazing confidence in themselves as they grow up and learn to be independent. My first counselor from 1981 still works there: a sign of the life-long hold it can have on people, and the wonder of the place. It’s both magical and real. Not many places are like that!
Camp is a place where I feel like I belong. At camp, I feel like I am accepted and loved.
In a world that seems more and more prescribed, camp is a necessary gift that we can give our children so that they may learn independence, gain confidence and have fun playing and challenging themselves individually and as a group. Pok-O does an incredible job setting the stage for just that sort of development and growth. I could not be happier that [she] has found the Pok-O community to be a home away from home to make new friends and try new things.
A truly unique and life enriching experience. I went with my siblings and cousins in the 80s and 90s, and now my daughter and my nieces and nephews are regular campers that spend the non-summer seasons excited to get back there. I most appreciate Pok-o as the place I connected with nature and grew through independence among new experiences and new people. Campers get to participate in extremely inventive and unique games and social activities that have lasted for decades. Plus there are zillions of classes spread out over the waterfront, the rock climbing facility, sports (hockey mainly) courts and fields, crafting facilities, and riding rings. Most importantly, the staff cares deeply about the kids, and they have infused the whole camp with the same warm, friendly and welcoming vibe for as long as I’ve known the place.
This really is “The Greatest Camp in the Universe”. I spent 10 amazing summers here as both a camper and a staff member. I was able to take part in a huge variety of activities: horseback riding; swimming; sailing; hiking; pottery and many more. It provided a safe, engaging environment to learn life-long skills and make life-long friends. A truly one-in-a-million place.
