Camp Dudley turned me into the adult that I am now. The camp motto, "The Other Fellow First", permeates every part of a camper's life there. Campers take the motto to heart, and as a result this is the kindest, most caring group of people I have been around in my life.

Camp Dudley is a remarkable place. I had the great pleasure of attending camp as a child and then working there as an adult. It is a community based on building kid's self-confidence and learning to think of others ahead of your own needs. It sounds too good to be true, however, if you talk to anyon...

Remember that moment in your childhood that you return to, wistfully and perhaps a bit jealously when your current life forces you to temporarily withdraw? That memory (or series of them) that you call on for strength or peace or joy or contentment or whatever else it is you need in the doldrums of ...

I have been so impressed by Camp Dudley in the development of my son. He attended for nearly 11 years, both as a camper and as a leader (counselor). Camp offers a wide range of activities across different programs including athletics (team and individual), outdoor/wilderness (hiking / canoe trips ...

My son's first year was last year and I can honestly say I thought he would not make the full session. He can't wait to get back this summer and he's is making it his goal to move up the ranks into leadership and hopefully Camp Director! Great nurturing camp for boys! Highly Recommend!

Camp Dudley is a wonderful summer camp for boys. The camp combines a well-balanced program of athletics, the arts, wilderness exploration, and spirituality with character and leadership development, and is a heck of a lot of fun, for campers, counselors ("Leaders"), and staff members. The camp's v...

Truly fantastic place for kids. I went there as a camper in the 90s then worked there several years later as a leader in the 2000s and 2010s. Amidst the ever evolving world around us, Camp Dudley's values hold strong. Dudley perfectly balances fun and growth and I guarantee your son or daughter w...

I just finished my first summer as a camper. It was hard to be away from home and I had homesickness, but was having fun the whole time even though I missed home. I met so many new friends and can t wait to go back. I am stronger and smarted because of my session at camp. I love camp!

It feels funny to be writing a google review for a place that means so much to me and my family- but If Dudley is on Google, we have to show up! We would give Dudley 200 stars if we could. More than a camp, Dudley is a community and a foundation for life. It s a place that you and your children will...

Camp Dudley is hands down one of the best places to go! I started working at Camp Dudley in 2012 and have managed to be a part of camp every year since, starting in the office and being there several summers, to now spending parts of my summer working in the infirmary. This place fosters a warm, car...

Dudley is my favorite place in the world. It has allowed me to express myself creatively. It has taught me how to be a better person. It has made me a better teacher. Dudley is a lot of fun, but that is not why I will send my two boys there. I will send them there because Dudley teaches boys how to ...

Camp Dudley in a word. Community. From the minute you walk into the gates of camp you are embraced by a family that has grown up together. Leaders and staff have started as campers, and continue to come back every summer because of the energy, love and support that is cultivated around everyone. The...

Where to begin? Camp Dudley was the setting for the best summers of my life, hands down. I attended Camp Dudley for almost every summer between 2003 and 2015, as a camper, a leader and a Division Head. No matter my role I always left the summer a better person than when I entered, and will always be...

I am so incredibly thankful that I was able to spend my summers as a kid at Camp Dudley. The Camp motto, "The Other Fellow First" is one of the first things you learn the minute you step onto campus ... and something that stays with you for a lifetime.

This place changed my life. Dudley connected me with a community of people who joyful, kind, thoughtful, and sincere. My best man was a Dudley friend. I live near and see many "Camp Buddies" even now. In a world where community can be hard to find, Dudley gave me connections that sustain me to this ...

I started going to Camp Dudley in 2006 and have been on campus in some capacity for eleven summers. This institution, its values, and the people that make up leadership and staff were instrumental to my development in ways too innumerable to measure. An incredible place and an incredible community t...

As a parent of 3 campers at both Dudley and Kiniya, I could not be prouder of these amazing camps. Our children found joy and camaraderie as campers, making lifelong friends. As campers, they enjoyed leadership training and life lesson that guided them on their journey as leaders themselves at cam...
