Why Camp Royall? Hear from a camper:
"This camp has the best counselors, and I really loved the special attention my assigned counselor and all the others gave me. Camp Royall makes everyone feel special, and I always have a good time. My counselor was so encouraging to me and my buddy. I hope that someday I can be a camp counselor at Camp Royall and make someone feel as special as they make me." 2023 Young Adult Camper
