This year (2018) was my first year, and I already won the dirt cake! The food is awesome, sleeping is great, the activities are fun, and the councleors are very nice and have a good sense of humor. Though I wish the YMCA Camp Benson YouTube channel would put videos of their songs on there because I really like the song '"Close your Eyes."

I go to this camp every year next year will be my 3rd year. Such a great atmosphere and when you go you feel like family. I can say enough about this camp but i can say I wish i would gone sooner!

I can’t say enough about this place! My 7 year old daughter had a wonderful experience at Camp Benson last summer and can’t wait to go back! She still talks about what a great time she had, 6 months later! Such a positive atmosphere for kids to gain independence and confidence, while enjoying the great outdoors. The counselors are very caring and the director is great- it is easy to tell that they all love their jobs. I wish I had had the opportunity to experience a camp like this as a child, but thankful that it is offered for my daughters to enjoy!

All four of my daughters LOVE Camp Benson! The activities are great and the counselors are fantastic! My girls would spend all summer there if they could.

My little brother looks forward coming to Camp Benson every summer. He truly loves this place. Every staff member is always so friendly and they are well organized. I would recommend this Camp to anyone! Truly worth every penny.
