“Our son loved his time at Great Adventures, and it could not have been an easier or more pleasant experience for us as parents. He already has declared his intent to go to Congo Camp every year until he’s too old for it, at which point he plans to be a counselor. Or a lifeguard. He’s still deciding.”
“Our daughter flourished at Congo Camp. There is no other place like it in DC or Northern VA. If you want the best summer experience for your child, Congo Camp is it!”
“Congressional Camp is the hands-down best camp in the DC metro area. My children look forward to attending year after year and are always excited to be dropped off every morning.”
“Fantastic summer. Our child was so happy and learned so much, in a Covid-precaution environment. So grateful.”
“I was very pleased with the execution of the safety protocols during camp.”
“It was a fantastic place for all three of my kids, ages 9,6, and 3, to experience new activities and have fun at camp!”
“My 7 year old son arrived not knowing anyone. By the third day he couldn’t wait to get there every morning. Loved it!”
“Absolutely loved how Congo Camp designed the entire experience to make sure kids and teachers/staff are healthy while having fun. Frank had the best time ever and he enjoyed meeting new friends as well as seeing his older friends from congressional. Screening procedure was super efficient and easy.”
“We thought the camp staff did an amazing job managing an unprecedented situation. Our son had a wonderful summer, and we felt the camp managed to mitigate COVID related risks in a way that the children attending camp could understand and feel comfortable with.”
“Nine years of sensational summers at Congressional Camp! Congo camp grows with your child from pre-school to rising high schooler and the adventures get better every year.”

“Our kids loved being at Congo Camp with old and new friends! Our kids were actually upset that we picked them up early from extended hours! We will be back next year!”
“Congressional camp has challenged our daughter in ways that we never would be able to. The confidence she has gained on the ropes course and in other activities has translated to other aspects of life. Thank you Congo Camp!”
“Our 8 year old daughter enjoys everything about Congo Camp. From the exciting bus rides to and from camp to the ropes coursing, meals, swimming, and time with awesome counselors, she is always delighted to go to camp. Thank you for running a well-organized and most of all fun summer camp.”
“Congo Camp has been a part of our family’s summer plans for nine years. My oldest child is now a counselor, and youngest is counting the summers until she can work there, too. Both of them come home tired but happy with tales of their adventures, and the counselor now has stories to share about “her campers,” who she misses already. We’re so glad to be a part of the Congo Camp family.”
“Both of my girls attended Congressional Camp this summer – this was our first summer at the camp. Sending them to Congressional Camp was the best decision we could have made! My girls woke up on Saturdays asking to go to camp -it was a great experience for both – and such a great feeling as a parent to know your kids are well taken care of and having a blast!”
“The changes provided safety without being overly restrictive – well done!”
“We have tried many camps inside the beltway. This is, hands down, the best. Where else can kids do zip-lines, ride horses, do archery, swim, and go on a creek walk all in one day, on-property? This is what summer should be.”
“Joy. You did joy, you did engagement, you made laughter possible, in a terrible time, and under very difficult circumstances”
