This camp has no limits to where you can go - the sky is the limit. I went for all but one year and am doing as much as I can to come back as a counselor. Ask any camper/ambassador there and they will tell you they have no words to describe it...truely too good for words

Every time anyone leaves Ambassador's Camp, they cry. Camp provides what no other program in this state can, an opportunity to meet other kids who have always felt different and alone because of their intelligence and to come away more confident, more happy, and with tons of new friends.
