"My son really liked cowboy camping. He enjoyed watching the stars and Milky Way at night. This was a new experience for him, and he would definitely recommend." (Parent of Colorado Expedition Camper, 2026)
"We could immediately see the new confidence these 5 days built in our son! He not only became a stronger climber, he made new friendships and cant wait to do a 2 week camp next time." (Parent of Colorado Expedition Camper, 2026)
"My child has only ever been camping once over night with his school. He wasn't prepared for what he was walking into and had a lot of nerves and anxiety. Although my son is a very adaptable and athletic child it was nice to see these activities were going to challenge him in a way he hasn't experienced. Listening to how he achieved and over came certain challenges was exactly what I wanted him to get out of this camp." (Parent of Colorado Expedition Camper, 2025)
"Not knowing anyone and having to integrate right into a living situation with new people was a huge challenge for sure for my daughter -but she loved it and thrived thanks to the expertise of [her instructor] and their inclusion and engagement with each and every camper. She felt right at home and they began to get to know one another, work as a team and live together in a super fun environment." (Parent of Colorado Expedition Camper, 2025)
"Hearing my daughter talk after the trip, she learned a bit more about camping safely to avoid bear interactions. That was good. I also liked that she was able to meet new kids from all over the place. And she loved paddle boarding so I was glad she got to find a new outdoor activity that she enjoys. And not having a phone all week was a good change of pace." (Parent of Colorado Expedition Camper, 2024)
"We feel at home with Avid! The camps are fun, safe and well-organized. At drop-off and pick-up, we, the parents feel very welcome; Avid staff are always friendly, approachable and helpful." (Parent of Colorado Expedition Camper, 2024)
"Attending an overnight camp where he didn't know anyone was such a huge confidence booster! He made friends, loved his camp guides, and learned new skills." (Parent of Colorado Expedition Camper, 2024)
