Why parents choose us…

Parents choose us because:

  1. Our entire event is designed to challenge campers with scenarios that require teamwork, creative problem solving, negotiation skills, environmental education, bravery, imagination, and more.
  2. Through creative role play, campers don’t just learn valuable life skills – they get to actively practice them! This practice time allows a deeper level of understanding and retention.
  3. Our staff are highly trained and constantly attentive to your child’s physical and emotional well being.
  4. We have strict rules to keep our events safe (with special foam swords and foam “spells”).
  5. Our campers were born to be heroes and are treated as such.
  6. We offer adventures that are rated for different levels of “scariness” so that kids who are frightened easily can opt to attend a less intense interaction.
  7. We make sure that campers understand that this is all just pretend; in reality, our monsters are people too!
  8. The average age of our counselors is 34… not 18!  Many of our staff are parents, instructors and teachers.
  9. We have a Parent Liaison whose job it is to make sure you feel secure about your child’s well being, to address your child’s special needs, and to answer any of your questions or concerns before, during and after camp.
  10. Wizards & Warriors Camp is owned and run by parents.

Mission: The Wizards & Warriors Summer Camp program provides campers the opportunity to expand their knowledge of culture and environmental sciences, develop life skills, and exercise values through creative, interactive role-playing and a positive learning environment. These experiences will enable them to become independent, well-rounded, and self aware members of society.

Philosophy: We have two mottos at the Wizards & Warriors Camp; one guides our creative process, and the other guides our operational methods. Our motto for the first is “Honor, Compassion, Courage”. These are the three attributes we want our campers to explore as they are what define the term “Hero” at our camp. The second, and most important motto is “Safe, Fun, Educational”. These are our “3RO” (three rules of operation). Every adventure, activity, and interaction that our campers experience must incorporate these three rules, in order of priority.

History: Our camp is very unique in that the entire summer experience is based on an interactive storyline in which the campers decide the outcome. But here’s the best part: The story never ends! Our heroes do succeed in various tasks and quests, but the world in which these stories are made continues on each summer, picking up where it left off the previous week or summer. This novel concept of a live, interactive and educational story for young heroes has been perfected over the past decade at our camp in Burlington, MA. It is here that our full and part time staff can work year round providing the adventure and environment that our students and campers enjoy.

Staff: All Staff at the Wizards & Warriors Residential Camp are required to attend paid training in safety, emergency response (CPR and First Aid certification provided), risk management, rules and procedures, conduct, and group management. Successful completion of training and assessment of skills is necessary for continued employment.
