Hi Britney,
Camp La Jolla is definitely GREAT! I was in pre-teen last summer and will be in the teen camp now that I am 13. I admit I didn’t want to walk 8.5 miles and sometimes my legs hurt after the morning run, but once I did it, I was so proud and realized it was up to ME to take advantage of all the awesome choices Camp Offers to everyone. I made wonderful friends, learned new sports, went on the BEST field trips, ate delicious meals (the salad bar is awesome!), and the staff is so caring. You’re never alone, never teased, and if you like the beach, well, it’s there every day. We had dances, talent shows, bonfires, and you choose what activities you want to do each week. If you like biking you can choose that, if you like lap swimming, you can choose that, surfing or aerobics, even karate (which I hope they have this summer! You live in a real college dormitory, a suite! You can decorate your room with your favorite posters too! I love anime so I brought those posters. Of course you will lose weight and learn to keep it off as you can always call Camp La Jolla after you leave; they are there every day to help you and they even call you after you leave to see how you are doing, and send you menus, ideas, encouraging letters, and more more! I can’t tell you all the GREAT stuff as there is so much of it. Call Camp La Jolla - I’d love to meet you at Camp this summer. My family is not wealthy; they had to struggle to send me to camp and I am going to make them and MYSELF so proud! Britney, post again, I think we could be friends.

Hi NANCY!!!!!! im 15 and extremely self concious i was wondering if i go to your camp am i required to take off my shirt because i have scars and am extremely embaressed?
Dear Nancy!!
Let me first start off by saying that you are blessing to people such as myself and probably people all over the world you may not even realize it!! My story is one that you may not have read about before. I am Crystal Sain’s mom who has worked for your Camp for the past 2 summer’s. All of her life she has struggled with weight loss and the lack of knowledge on my part to show her the correct way to eat right and keep it off and to be happy and stick to it! Even when she came home for the time before she left for her last year of college wich by the way she graduated with honor’s !! Yeah for her straigt A’s!! I am soo proud of her. She never stopped her life style change . In fact , she kept losing the weight and staying fit for herself even when she cried at the fact that I am heavy and she wants me to get my weight off as well for not only my health but she kinda wants me around for a long time she say’s! LOL. I’ll tell you she is such a motivational inspiration to all her friends or anyone for that matter who come in contact with her. She tells me that I am making excuses that if she can do it so can I. I wouldthink that anyone would love the chance to come to that camp and get the weight off and get jump started on fitness because I know that there they would have no choice and I know that they would have the best time doing it!!. I am writing to thank you and to let you know personally how happy I am that you chose my daughter to work for you because it is truly the best thing ever that has happened to her in her lifetime and to get this under control now was very important. She has been through so much already I really wanted something good to happen to her and it did. I am by no means saying that it was easy for her but what I am saying is that you have inspired these kids to make a difference not only in their lives but to carry it on to others as well kinda like giving back and it is an awesome idea!! As a mother I am grateful in so many ways you just have no idea!! and my daughte thinks u are AWESOME!! I am kinda jealous because you get to have her for however long now and I have lost her to you and California!! I will survive though because that is what we do right!? Raise them and let them fly!! I am sure she will be a wonderful spirit at your camp with lots of energy and a very positive attitude and outlook on life.
Thanks again!!

Hi Nancy,
Remember me TJ. I went to camp for the teens and was a counselor one year. I have lost my way. Is there a camp for young male adults or can you give me some ideas how to get back in control. Please let me know. The years at camp la jolla was some of the best. Look forward to hearing from you
