Camper & Family Comments:
Murray Camp was and still continues to be a treasured Nantucket experience
for my three children ages 24, 21 and 17.
Our family has been coming to Nantucket since the 1920s. Over the past
fifteen years, at least one of my children has attended or worked at the
camp, each summer. Murray Camp has always been able to provide the best
that Nantucket has to offer to children. It is a wonderfully balanced, safe
and fun place to be during a Nantucket summer.

Murray Camp is so much fun! I love it and can't wait for summer to come every year

My children attended and later worked at Murray Camp. They now have children of their own. My favorite memory is
seeing how happy they were getting off of the bus each day, excited to tell
us about their fun filled day!
It was so great! I am so looking forward to returning with my grandchildren in a few years!

Well, we get to go fishing, sailing, surfing and kayaking. We play basketball, soccer, tennis and even ice skate every week. We make things from clay and even learn how to do printmaking. I think that every kid that goes there doesn't want summer to end because everyone there is so nice and it's really cool.

Murray Camp is the most enriching environment that Nantucket has to offer to children. They provide a safe, nurturing experience to children, that I've yet to find in any educational setting or program that my children have encountered. The children are enriched through curriculum and activities that have them enjoying the island's very best. There is more laughter and happy memories provided to children through their camp experience there, than I could ever state in words.

My favorite time of year is summer, because that's when I get to go back to
Nantucket and see all of my friends at Murray Camp.

Murray Camp is part of Nantucket's identity! It is the oldest children's
summer camp on the island. Two of my children attended the camp through
their childhood and both later worked at the camp. They loved it! They met
many friends there that they have remained friends with, through today. My
youngest is now 23.
I can't say enough good things about this camp.

That's all my kids talk about. They have had such great summers at Murray
Camp. We have been more than delighted!

What makes Murray Camp so special is that Mary has the ability
to make every parent there, feel as though his or her child is the
most important child in her world. It is truly amazing! She has some sort of radar in making sure that she gets to know every child in the camp and sees to it that they are having a phenominal experience. I haven't met one parent in all of the years that my children have attended that wouldn't agree wholeheartedly.

I'm impressed that Mary & Chuck are always there, pleasantly orchestrating
the smooth, safe, operation of the camp. It makes a difference to me that
which ever activity the children are participating in, that there are
mature, responsible, educators,
overseeing things.

We are huge fans of Murray Camp! Summers on Nantucket wouldn't be as
wonderful as they are without Murray Camp.

Our family chooses Murray Camp year after year for our children because of the thoughtful attention to detail Chuck and Mary put into hiring their staff. Each year we can count on our children spending the day with qualified, outgoing, loving, attentive, fair and FUN camp counselors, who have been fully screened and hand picked by the owners. Our children wish the camp day would go on well past 3 pm. Murray camp continues to be more than enriching for our children. They love it!
