“SWAT is the best thing that happened to me EVER!!!! All the friends that I made are the best friends I have!!!! and I hope to see all of them again next year!!!!!” - Camper
“I went to Camp Rockfish and it rocked! I had a blast and I made a lot of friends. I definitely will be coming next year. I also had a lot of time to get to know Jesus better He really did a miracle in me while I was there.” -Camper
“THANK YOU FOR HELPING ME, TEACHING ME, PLAYING WITH ME, AND MOST OF ALL PRAYING WITH ME. I HAD A WONDERFUL TIME AT CAMP. I WISH I COULD GO ALL SUMMER IF I COULD. I HAD SO MUCH FUN AT THE ACTIVITES. THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR TIME WITH ME AND I CAN`T WAIT FOR NEXT SUMMER.”- Camper
“Thank you so much for letting camp be a wonderful experience for others and myself. God has touched my soul so that I am speechless. Worship was always the best part of the day. All of the activities during the day were totally rad. You had such a wonderful staff. Being outdoors felt like such a wonderful experience. Since I went to Rockfish I look at nature differently as well as God. If I hadn't gone to your camp I probably would not be as close to God as I am now.”- Camper
"If it were not for you and your camp, I may not have found a place for God in my life." - Camper
"This week I have experienced God's love. For the first time in my life I have truly walked with Christ." - Camper
"I want to thank you for one of the most awesome experiences of my life. I feel really in touch with God. Before I felt sort of a halfway Christian... after last week, I feel changed." - Senior Camper
“You people are the greatest at doing your jobs! I’ve loved all of my weeks and counselors for all of my 3 years going here.” - camper
“I picked up my son and his friend today from Rockfish. All I have heard is wonderful things about the week. The first thing my son said is "I have to come back next year!" I want to complement the counselors on an awesome job with the kids. They think the world of them. My son loved the Bible studies that they presented. And that is a miracle in itself! The counselors connected with the boys and helped make their week fantastic. Thank you to all the workers that gave the boys a fun filled, Christ filled and exciting week. I know this is a highlight of their summer. Thank you again and I'm sure we will be seeing you again next year. “ - Parent
“My daughter was there last week and she had a great time. This was her third year there, and she said this was the best one yet. She liked the increased time devoted to bible study and worship, and said she comes back home feeling 1) she wants to live there and be a part of Rockfish all the time, and 2) she feels more confident in her religion and commitment to Christ since being there. WOW. Thanks so much; it was a great week for her. I just wanted you to know what a powerful thing you've got going down there.” - Parent
"Our son really enjoyed camp. He was blessed spiritually through Bible study, songs, skits, and friendships. Thank you for taking care of him and for helping him to grow spiritually.” – Parent
"Our son has participated in three years of camp at Rockfish. Last summer he tried another camp, but wanted to return to Rockfish this year. To me that says it all." - Parent
“Thank you very much for my child’s best year ever so far (in 3 years). She said her whole camp family was great. She never wants to leave camp. You all do a wonderful job with the campers. She talks highly about the camp staff, especially the counselors. She makes a lot of friends and hopes she sees them next year. Today (coming home from camp) she is already talking about next summer camp. I really just want to thank all of you for your hard work and caring hearts for all the things you do (and the Hearts you have touched-speaking of my camper’s heart at least).” - Parent
“My daughter has attended Rockfish since she was just old enough to come. As a preacher’s kid who has to move a few times, she always knows that no matter where she lives every summer she will be at Rockfish. . . . It is a safe place to be emotionally & spiritually as she is with others who believe as she does.” -- Parent
“My daughter has attended Rockfish for five years now and still wants to go back as a staff member. Every year she comes back with a greater spiritual understanding and many wonderful memories.” -- Parent
My son has been coming here since his 6th birthday. He has benefited greatly from the contact with male counselors who have a strong spiritual life. He is able to see that being a Christian doesn’t mean you don’t have to have fun. The spiritual maturity speaks well of this staff and has always impressed me.” -- Parent
"Thanks for providing such a special time for both of our children." - Parent
"Thank you for helping my daughter to grow in Christ." - Parent
"Rockfish is truly making a difference in these kids lives!! My niece and nephew don’t have a ideal home life so....you really did start to move a mountain!!"
"The first time I came to camp was an awesome and life changing experience. Being on staff is like getting the chance to give back to camp. I hope to help others have a similar experience when they come here too." – Staff
“(This summer) we truly got to see how BIG God can be when we just allow Him to work through us, not to mention some wicked awesome teams, new friends, and activities.” – Staff
