(5) Overall experience
An absolutely fantastic camp for the young adventurer! This camp has inspired me in many ways and I’ve learned more about myself that I would have ever known. It’s my home away from home. Excellent food, awesome staff, and an extraordinary experience. This has pushed me outside of my comfort zone in the best way possible and shown me the true magic of nature. I’m so happy that Educo exists.
(4) Program quality and activities
The high ropes course and the solos have pushed me beyond my comfort zone and shown me what I can actually do. I always look forward to the spectacular dish parties and the solos. Being out in nature alone is a gift. I’ve never done most of these activities and I’m happy that I’ve been exposed to all of them, too.
(4.5) Social dynamics and experience
Making friends out at Educo is bound to happen. Every year I come back, I feel happy and sad when I leave knowing all the friends I’ve made and the experiences I’ve had. Teamwork and friendship are basically the definition of Educo. Every activity bonds you to others and it’s absolutely an unbreakable bond. Truly.
(5) Staff/Instructors/Counsellors
The staff are so so kind here at Educo. They have experience and can provide comfort in tough places. Without the staff, Educo wouldn’t be what it is now. I’m always pleased to see my old counsellors again and laugh at journeys and adventures we’ve had in the past.
(5) Advice and tips
I’m always nervous before Educo. Don’t overthink it. The second you step onto the Educo campsite, all of your problems go away. Don’t worry about anything and just truly enjoy the experience. You’ll learn so much from this. Every activity is safe and fun, so don’t sit out if you can.
