“Great People!”
- KION News, December 2001 |
 ”Never
in my wildest dreams did I think we would have been able
to find a company like Corporate Kids Events. Your
passion, knowledge, humor , respect, and loyalty were
what made the Kids Camp the SMASHING SUCCESS that it
was! You took our vision embraced it and took off
running with it. You were able to secure a staff of 100
that were not only extremely qualified and professional
but FUN! You provided parents with a sense of security
that most of them have never known. You provided our
kids with a sense of normalcy that they crave more than
anything. In essence, you guys ROCKED! You are a great
partner to work with and allowed us to relax more during
the planning process. The letters and emails keep coming
in raving about the kids program! Thank you again!

“The camp was awesome!
Both my kids were apprehensive when we first dropped
them off. Hearing about some of the special activities
(fire truck, ambulance, magic show ..) helped but they
were still nervous. When we picked them up later that
afternoon they were both smiling from ear to ear. They
had such a blast and dropping them off on Saturday was
no problem. We gave my daughter the option of leaving a
bit early on Friday b/c we were scheduled to see one of
the Doctors and wanted her with us - she chose to stay
in the camp rather than be with us - that was a first!
Last night after we got home, I asked them to tell me
their favorite part of the weekend and my son said "the
camp!”
Before the conference, I was feeling a bit guilty about
"parking" them in a camp for 3 days - even though we
were doing it for a good reason - both my husband and I
work full time outside of the home so we don't get as
much time to spend with the kids as we would like to.
With the kids having such a wonderful experience it took
away any guilt whatsoever and made it so much easier to
focus on getting what we wanted to out of the conference
knowing the kids were well taken care of and having a
good time.
All the counselors we met were great - so it would be
difficult to pick out any individual one. Their energy
level was amazing - keeping kids this age entertained
for 9+ hours is not easy!
So I would like to thank you and Corporate Kids Events
for helping to make our experience at the conference a
fantastic one for the whole family”
- Michele Leonard, TS Alliance Attendee |
“Thank you to you,
Garen, and the entire staff at kids’ camp. I had Shane
in one camp for typical 7 year olds. He had a blast and
was very impressed with making a shirt, a hat, the magic
show, etc. Nathaniel was in the special needs camp for 8
year olds, and is still talking about his friend Julio
and the counselor Amy. He loved it and this was the
first time in his life that he was not with family or
his private nurse. He was disappointed that we could not
stay Sunday for him to go back to kids’ camp. This is a
testament in itself of how wonderful a job you all did.
He was very impressed with the putt putt golf, and
friendship bracelets Amy and he made. Then there was
Nevada who has an IQ of a genius but lives his life with
no friends, no social skills, he was in typical teenager
camp and was so thrilled he is still talking about. He
has not taken off the tie dye shirt he made since we
left there. (Okay this could become a problem. LOL) He
said he was impressed with the sibs workshop and came
away with more of an understanding. God Bless all of you
for the job you did. This was our first ever vacation
and you all made it so my husband and I could enjoy
ourselves without worrying about our kids. All of you
that created this, and the staff did an amazing job. We
thank you so much!!!! “
- The Tinlins, TS Alliance Attendee |
"I must say that
conference was spectacular. We enjoyed everyone we met.
My children were very impacted by everyone. Rachel made
friends with Mia and Alex. She loved the staff working
with them. She also made a buddy in Devon and a number
of other people as well. However, my Katie (without TS)
told me that she never felt as much a part of TS as she
finally did with conference. The best friend she made
was Maddie (who has TS). They were quite the groupies
with the bands. I was glad we gave Katie the opportunity
to be involved and learn more about her sister and
others. I am also grateful to everyone who also made her
a part of our trip by talking with her, asking her
questions, and generally making her head so big that she
barely made it through the door of the train. Katie is
generally very shy and so good that she gets passed over
at times and not a single person did that during
conference. My hugs and kisses to you all."
- Treasa Bolger, TS Alliance Attendee |
“We had such a
wonderful experience with the camp and my kids just
didn't want to leave when I came to pick them up.
Kaileigh loved decorating her T-shirt and making her
picture frame, she thought Sabrina (counselor) was
great!"
- Tristen |
"had fun playing with
Ben and Kelsey at camp, He thought Matt the counselor
was a cool Dude. He loved making his polka dot scarf and
his flower "hula" necklace for me. Allison and
Cassie were sweet and fun! The two chairs of the
Preschool and School age rooms Rob and Chris were
absolutely wonderful.
All the Counselors were so professional and really took
care of our kids and let them be themselves. It was one
the most positive experiences my kids have had and
enjoyed more than the sight seeing we did afterwards.
Bravo!!!!
You all get a standing Ovation from the Powell Family!!"
- Misty, Kaileigh and Tristen Powell, Tucson,
Arizona |
“Just a note to say
camp was awesome for my kids. Counselor Airianna in
discovery camp was very welcoming. Derek said they were
busy all day and never got bored. He was so excited and
she even played games with them!:) (Derek’s words) In
explorer camp Rebecca was excellent, she worked the
interests of both her charges into the day equally and
for that it was a great day for Kayla. In the am I
didn’t think I’d get her in the door (mine was the
daughter in green trying to hide in the wall so she
wouldn’t have to go in the room of strangers. I think
you were the lady that helped talk to her and told her
about the cheerleaders. I thank you for the help.) The
counselors were so engaging they didn’t let the kids
have fears and for that I am thankful. Thanks for a
great experience and all your hard work.”
- Teresa Dechant, Conference Attendee |
“I just wanted to say
that you did a great job on the Kids Camp. I absolutely
loved the volunteers I met from Corporate Kids Events.
Cathy, in the toddler room, was taking care of the girls
and I felt that she had known them and cared about them
her whole life. She was truly wonderful! I even bought
her a little gift because she was so sweet. She paid a
lot of attention to Cassidy's needs for separation, i.e.
she gets overwhelmed sometimes by a lot going on, and
Cathy picked up on that without me telling her and took
her out to play alone on the first day.
Also, Kiley loved it. The girls go to a home daycare for
3 hours a week and there are some days that Kiley
doesn’t want to go. But on Sunday morning when we were
getting dressed Kiley said "Momma, Camp!" and clapped.
She was excited to go back. They would both run in the
building when we got to the conference center.
I am sure it was a lot of work but man it was wonderful
not worrying about the girls when we were in the
conferences. Great job to Corporate Kids Events!"
