  We loved the Champ Camp experience at Loyola! The hours were incredibly accomodating for working parents (before and aftercare were actually included in the cost). And the activities were varied: arts and crafts, outdoor time on Loyola campus, games. There were not one but TWO field trips PER WEEK, so kids got to explore all parts of Chicago (beach, museums, parks, etc.) The counselors were incredibly responsive by email and cell, and you get great pictures every week. We hope to go back next summer!

  My daughter went to this camp. The price was reasonable. The staff was friendly and professional with built-in after care. We will be doing this again.

  Champ Camp Great Outdoors has been a tremendous relief for me as a working parent. I want to thank McCahl and all the Champ Camp counselors for a great summer - from the bottom of my heart! Hours are great, drop off and pick up was super convenient, field trips twice a week and lots of outdoor activities that my daughter enjoyed! We hope to see you all again next summer! Don't change anything about it!

  Our daughter loved Champ Camp at Loyola this year! The timing for the program was perfect, there were field trips and adventures weekly, the staff and counselors were caring and showed genuine enthusiasm for the kids. We felt safe and secure and were well informed with the whole program from start to finish. Would highly recommend for children 5-7 years old and hope they will return next summer!

  A quality summer camp on the Loyola campus. It was new this year, so we didn't know what to expect, but it worked out very well for our family. Good hours, easy drop off and pickup. Kids ranged in age from 4-10 and the staff did a great job of having fun for all and fostering multiage friendships. Lots of field trips, outdoor games, crafts and some beach days rounded out a very nice summer program.
