"I sent my daughter for the first time this year to Sparrowwood. She seemed to have a great time. Your staff was amazing at making her feel welcomed and me feel safe leaving her alone. She has two siblings who can't wait to come to Glisson next year for their first time. Not only do you impact the 2500 campers and youth, but their families as well. Thank you for such a great first camp experience."
