ABOUT OUR PROGRAM

Our vision is to empower campers with the skills and tools needed to achieve their weight loss goals while fostering a healthy and active lifestyle. With three distinct programming levels, we cater to the diverse needs of our campers, ensuring that everyone can participate and benefit.
 

Campers will learn how to develop an effective exercise routine, choose nutrient-dense foods, navigate grocery shopping, and prepare healthy meals—all while making the process enjoyable and rewarding. These skills not only support weight loss but also become integral to a camper's daily life upon returning home. Parents often notice their kids taking a proactive interest in their health and well-being, setting the stage for lasting change.

PARENT TESTIMONIALS

"My son just got home from 6 weeks at this camp. He had a wonderful time. The counselors and kids really bonded and seemed to create a "family". There was so much positive energy there. My son has learned a lot about nutrition and exercise. He struggles with his weight and has food issues. I loved that their focus wasn't on how much he weighed/lost but on teaching proper nutrition and exposing him to activities and exercises that he can enjoy to encourage an active lifestyle. Communication was excellent. Every promise they made was kept. When I dropped him off he was upset and didn't want to stay. When I picked him up, he was upset and didn't want to leave! And we have already heard from a couple of counselors checking in on him!!! I can't say enough about this camp! I strongly recommend it!!" 

"My two daughters (10 and 16) spent 2 weeks at Camp New Heights this past summer and they had a wonderful experience. My daughters were a little nervous going in, but within hours of arrival they were having a blast and at the end they didn't want to leave. The program was adapted and customized to meet their needs. The girls got to experience a plethora of new activities and were exposed to an abundant amount of information about nutrition, physiology, and life skills to bring home with them. Both girls loved their classes, counselors, and especially the weekend excursions. The camping excursion was such a great experience for the girls to get out and have a wonderfully structured outdoor adventure like they never had before. The camp was such a great experience that we intend on sending both girls back next summer. My daughters went from being skeptical about attending to begging us to stay longer and return next summer. I would recommend this camp to all parents, the experience is multifaceted and offers so many opportunities for kids to grow and thrive at camp and after returning home.


Most importantly my daughters self esteem went up tremendously after the camp, they even seemed to be happier, more active and more open to physical activities after the camp comparing their lifestyle before. It's like they now stay active with intention and deeper understanding how important it is. It's a healthy lifestyle lesson that they had though fun and group of people that made it feel like a family."

"My family and I want you to know how much we appreciate the way you have developed your CNH program and convey strong caring character when running your program.  My son attended your program the summer of 2019 for 4 weeks.  Once he returned we asked him, "How did you like it?"...he stated one word "AWESOME" and immediately followed with "I want to do it next year. " We all experience his great motivation, his knowledge of good eating practices, and understanding workout regiments. Great staff, great activities, new memories and new friends.  Thank you all staff members at Camp New Heights. Oh yeah, great daily pictures emailed to parents of the campers' great times and activities."

"My daughter Lieal is 15. She flew International to attend a 4-week weight loss program at Camp New Heights. She can't stop raving about her experience. I couldn't believe a four week program could make such an impact. Her confidence level went up, she gets up in the morning and works out, socializes easily, barely on her phone (huge accomplishment ), she is more focused and determined. She made friends at the camp and has kept talking to them after she is back. The staff is very accommodating, especially Stephen the program director was very responsive to every email, question, Whatsapp I sent and went out of his way to do the required Covid test for her before her flight back. I felt that my daughter was surrounded by a family-like community and we're very pleased we decided to send her there. I'll send both my daughters next year. I highly recommend to every parent who is looking to change there kids life for better."
