Amplify Sleep Away Camp

★★★★★Jin-gyu Lee

I was truly impressed by the incredible journey of the 2025 Amplify Camp. I believe it was all made possible thanks to the passion and dedication of the staff and campers throughout the experience. For my daughter, it was her first-ever sleepaway camp, and she struggled with homesickness at the beginning. But thanks to the support of the amazing staff and the friends she met at Amplify, she gradually opened up and fully immersed herself in the camp experience. She doesn’t even want to leave from Amplify at last. My daughter—who loves music deeply—joined the camp all the way from Korea, and the long flight was more than worth it. It became a precious, lifelong memory for her. Beyond music, the camp offered diverse opportunities such as swimming, skateboarding, and art. Above all, I felt it was truly meaningful that the children learned, communicated, and grew together through their shared experiences. Naturally, my daughter says she will join the next camp without hesitation, and she hopes to see her beloved staff and friends again. She will cherish the meaningful memories and lessons she gained from Amplify. Thank you once again to everyone—staff and campers—for making this such a wonderful and unforgettable journey.

Our daughter attended a 2 week program in June 2025. I dropped her off and picked her up from the camp and got a little tour and insight into life at Amplify. She had an amazing time, is signed up to return for 4 weeks next summer and has made some really strong friendships around music which her and the other girls are super passionate about. The camp director, Jen, has been incredibly helpful and what we love is how open to feedback they are and take all suggestions seriously incorporating many into upcoming year. Thank you for putting on such a wonderful program for our daughters to become leaders in the Arts.

Our daughter attended a two week sleep away program at Amplify this past summer. She had an incredible time. She made friends she still texts multiple times a week, developed close connections with teachers and staff, LOVED the food, and her confidence as a musician really improved as well. We are very impressed with the values and culture at Amplify and are excited for summer 2026. Thank you Amplify!

Our 13 year old daughter attended Amplify Sleep Away camp summer 2025 and had the time of her life. It was her first seep away camp experience, she went knowing no one, and stayed for a two week session. When she returned home she was bursting with stories of community, connection, identity, friendship, and empowerment. The only thing I can really equate it to is how I felt coming home from a year at University. I felt like I found a new place where I belonged and that meant the world to me. Amplify provided our daughter with a positive, safe, nurturing, and education environment and she came home a better version of herself! Her music skills improved, she was excited to keep creating (and practicing) and is already enrolled for next summer. Thank you Amplify for creating this wonderful space for our daughter.

Our kid's first time at Amplify was wonderful. She came hope with happiness, new friendships, and a new connection to music and creativity that made me so happy. She was on the drums track and I definitely saw the progress in her understanding of the instrument and enthusiasm to keep working on it. The counselors all seemed very caring and attentive and I think the environment really supported each kid connecting to their own power and positivity. We plan to come back next year!
