Hi Colette...
Santiago enjoyed tremendously his time at Chikopi during the summer. He learned a lot and the exercise helped him to get fitter and healthier as well.
We look forward for the next summer.

Dear Colette,
Thank you so much for your message and for taking the time to share your reflections on Joshua’s time at Chikopi. It truly means the world to us.
We are so grateful for the positive impact that his stay had on him. Joshua has come home with a renewed sense of responsibility and a noticeable boost in his long-distance swimming, which we attribute to the wonderful experiences and encouragement he received at Chikopi. We feel very fortunate to have had him be a part of such a supportive and nurturing environment.
Joshua is already anticipating his return to Chikopi as a CIT ;-)
Wishing you a restful and calm fall season!
Irina and Felix

Dear Colette,
Thank you for this email. Leonardo had a very good time with you. This was his first experience traveling alone and I’m glad it was with Chikopi.
It was an enriching experience and I hope he will return next year.
Thank you again for taking care of my son.
Have a safe return to Florida.

I believe Raul has found a new passion, haha. This year, he signed off from the swimming school team.

Hi Colette!
I really appreciate your understanding of Winston trying to navigate this time in his life where he’s not always making great choices. With your guidance and awesome way of handling it.. consequences he had a GREAT time at chikopi!
The car ride home he was saying how next year he wants to go back, and was very proud of his improved swim times.
Thanks
Carolyn.
Happy fall!

Hi Colette,
Aidan had a great time inspite of his reluctance to go.
He said this year was better than last year and wants to go back and be with Kieran next year!
He is still talking about it!

Hi Colette
I just wanted to send you a note to give a big thank you to you and your team for running such an amazing camp. I will hear much more about it tonight, but I briefly spoke with Robert on his way home and he had nothing but positive comments to give about the camp. He had an amazing time, made great connections and loved everything! He commented on the delicious food and the extra portions he helped himself to as a result. He definitely wants to go back next year although it will be longer than the 2 weeks.
Given this was his first experience away, I was a bit apprehensive although you were great to get me past the first phase, then getting Robert’s letter and all the Instagram photos of the camp showing happy Robert (engaged in activities) kept the worries at bay.
I hope you enjoyed the rest of your summer and we will certainly see you next year. I’ve spread the word and a couple more boys are also planning to join in next year. I am so happy that Robert had this experience
All the best!

I just want to thank you for this great summer of Mateo. He came back very happy. He said you were very kind when he was sick. I think these weeks were very good for his growth in all senses.
Thanks again and hopefully he can go back next year to Chikopi.
