Great idea to bring a digital camera. This camp is so fun, leaves you with so many new experiences and many memories.
Response from the owner:Was so great having you at the weekend !
Great camp!!! Super fun activities and great people 🙂
Response from the owner:Thank you so much! We’re thrilled you had such a great time at camp. We loved having you as part of our community and can’t wait for more fun, creativity, and connection next summer! 🎸☀️🎨
I am so grateful that my daughter got to experience this camp! She’s has not stopped talking about it and her confidence has gone up exponentially. She still talks to her camp mates and the band skills she developed got her into a rock group program at her school. Hands down the BEST CAMP EVER 🎸✨
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re beyond thrilled to hear that your daughter had such a powerful experience at Amplify. Watching campers grow in confidence, build lasting friendships, and carry their skills into the real world is exactly why we do what we do. Please tell her we’re cheering her on in her school rock group—we hope to see her back at camp soon for more music, memories, and magic! 🎸💛✨
I came from NZ to help teach at Amplify and was not disappointed. Such lovely staff striving to make things accessible and fun for the kids and such lovely students!

This was my second summer working at Amplify, and it was an absolute dream. It is so incredible to be a part of such an important and nurturing environment. Everyone is so dedicated to camp’s mission of creating a safe and supportive community for creative youth. It’s so incredible to watch each camper grow confidence and excitement for the arts, and to be a part of a group of staff so passionate about what we do. Every aspect of camp is inspiring and teaching me so much every year.

Had a great time working here as an instructor! It’s always so awesome to connect with the youth and get to hear from them directly. The kids here always amaze me with their projects and cool interests. This place really helps kids learn how to express themselves and be genuine! So glad I came here as a camper!!

This was my first time at amplify and I met so many amazing people. The campers are so kind and excited to be in this community and they inspire me as a musician! This camp is the most inclusive and inspirational camp for young musicians and the best choice for a sleep away camp!

Our family loves this camp! It’s the highlight of the summer for a 12 year old who would otherwise be lobbying for far too much screen time indoors. I’ve been told more than once “Amplify is the place where I feel completely accepted for who I am”. As As a parent I’m so grateful this camp is part of our lives.

This is my daughter Melanie’s 2nd year going to Camp Amplify. Every year it just amazes me how impactful and fun this camp has been to her summer experience. When I pick my daughter up from camp she spends literal hours talking about her time at camp and how much fun she had the last 2 weeks. I cannot express enough gratitude and admiration for this camp and the environment they have created for my daughter. This is the one thing she comes home from and says I just cannot wait until next year. Thank You so much to all of the staff and the director for giving my daughter and everyone’s children the chance to learn and grow and just have fun! It truly means the world to me, you are very special people and we cannot wait for next year!!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your incredibly kind words! It means the world to us to hear how much Melanie loves Amplify and that camp has become such a special part of her summer. Seeing campers light up with joy, confidence, and connection is what drives everything we do, and knowing that she leaves each year already excited for the next is the highest compliment we could receive. We’re so grateful to have your family as part of our community—thank you for trusting us with your amazing kid. We can’t wait to welcome Melanie back this year for even more fun, growth, and unforgettable memories! 💛🎶🌈

We’re forever grateful to have your family in our community! 💛🎤✨
So excited to spend the summer at Amplify! Empowering campers and staff is my goal!
Response from the owner:It was great having you Sarah!
My daughter is getting ready to attend Amplify this summer for the third time. Once reluctant to sleepaway from home, she looks forward to this experience each year. The accommodations are fantastic, great food, endless activities, and amazing opportunities to connect with others who have a passion for music and creative arts. The counselors seem relatable, approachable, creative and wonderful. Everyone is so encouraging and supportive. It is a welcoming environment that fosters new friendships. It is a great place to go to be yourself, hang out, collaborate with others and make lasting memories.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your kind words and for sharing your daughter’s journey with us! Watching a once-reluctant camper grow to look forward to Amplify each year is one of the most rewarding parts of what we do. We’re so proud to offer a space where young people can feel supported, inspired, and free to be themselves. From the food and activities to the friendships and creative collaborations, we’re thrilled that Amplify has become such a meaningful part of her life. We can’t wait to welcome her back as staff one day 💛🎸🌟
My daughter has attended this camp for 2 years in a row and has begged us to add on another session this year. Every year she comes back from camp having grown in her confidence, sense of self, and musical ability. We love this camp.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your heartfelt words! It’s truly an honor to be part of your daughter’s journey and to watch her confidence, self-expression, and musical skills grow each year. The fact that she’s asking to stay even longer this summer says everything! We’re so grateful for your continued trust in Amplify and can’t wait to welcome her back for another empowering and joy-filled session. 💛🎶🌈

I learned how to play bass at Amplify in 2013. I was only 8 years old. Since then I’ve been a camper, teen council member, intern during covid, counselor during the summers, and am now the year round social media manager and bass instructor during the summer! I haven’t missed a year<3 Amplify is so much more to me than a summer camp. It’s so much more than just learning an instrument or a new skill. Amplify has without a doubt made me who I am and allowed me to be unapologetically the best version of me that I want to be. Coming back as staff allowed me to keep the magic going.I’ve got to see firsthand young girls find hope, power, and love within themselves to be who they are and want to be. I’ve seen them come to camp shy, and leave bolder and braver than ever. I know it’s true because not too long ago that was me! Jen Baron created a beautiful space, and a life changing program when she started Amplify. I am forever in awe of this program and the people I’ve gotten to meet and will meet through it, the skills I’ve learned most musically and emotionally, and the lifelong memories. I hope to stay a part of Amplify forever. ⭐️
Response from the owner:Wow. Your words mean everything. Watching your journey from 8-year-old camper to the powerful, grounded, talented leader you are today has been nothing short of inspiring. You are the living, breathing example of what Amplify is all about—growth, courage, creativity, and community. You don’t just keep the magic going—you are the magic. Thank you for continuing to show up, lift others up, and help shape this space into the life-changing program it’s become. We are forever lucky to have you as part of the Amplify family. 💛🎸🌟
Omg! My daughter was so excited about this camp and being able to be with her friends, and make NEW friends. She came back home so happy and excited to tell me her experiences with the program and helped my daughter with her social anxiety with opening up more. I highly recommend this program and your kids will too 🦋
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for sharing this! We’re so happy to hear that your daughter had such a positive and uplifting experience at Amplify. Watching campers connect, grow in confidence, and come out of their shell—especially when it comes to social anxiety—is one of the most meaningful parts of what we do. We’re honored to be a part of her journey and so grateful for your recommendation. Can’t wait to welcome her back next summer! 💛🦋🎶
Amplify is a great program with the most caring staff. My daughter looks forward to every lesson and summer spent at camp. The afterschool and summer camp programs are amazing! The program definitely encourages creativity and self confidence in girls.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your kind words and ongoing support! We’re so grateful to hear how much your daughter looks forward to Amplify—whether it’s during the school year or over the summer. It’s our joy and mission to create a space where girls can grow in creativity, confidence, and community, and we’re so honored to be part of her journey. We can’t wait to continue making magic with your family! 💛🎨🎸
Amplify is my daughter Bradie’s FAVorite camp – this summer will be our 4th, and Amplify is something my daughter calls the highlight of her summer. Things that Bradie especially enjoys is the casual camaraderie, and how the campers in her track are grouped with instrumentalists into casual bands to allow them to combine their creativity in an informal but guided way (she’s a vocalist). The end of session “jam” is the closing finale and not to be missed! As a parent, I also appreciate the convenient transportation options as well as the “screen free” philosophy. This will be our last summer at Amplify (unless my daughter comes back as a counsellor) – highly recommend for girls and young women to enjoy a creative, supportive experience!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for this beautiful reflection and for being part of the Amplify family over the years! Watching Bradie grow with us and shine in her element has been such a joy. We’re so glad she’s found a space where creativity, connection, and self-expression come naturally—and we agree, that end-of-session jam is always such a magical moment! Thank you for trusting us with these important summers. We’ll miss having Bradie as a camper but would absolutely love to welcome her back as a counselor someday! 💛🎤🌈
Response from the owner:Thanks Greg
My daughters have attended for 3 summers now, because it’s an amazing experience!
It’s always shocking to me how much they do in a two week span.
My oldest has always been a pretty shy person even struggled with social anxiety, but when I saw the pictures of her performing on stage! rocking out on an electric guitar, it nearly made me cry tears of joy. Her new found confidence really helped with the first weeks of a new HS, she also continued her lessons in base.
My two younger daughters also discovered their passion for photography and song writing. I love this camp because of the space they have created for these girls, they bond, and grow together, and they are exposed to music in fun and relevant manner to their age. My youngest made so many friends, even has “besties” who she talks to via text on regular bases but she lives on the another side of the country, yet they are still close and the friendship only grows then they reunite at camp, which always makes camp that much more exciting. I’m very grateful for the opportunity to send my daughters here, and will continue to.

My daughter attended Amplify Sleep Away Camp and had an absolute blast! The counselors were amazing and created an unforgettable experience. This camp provided her with memories that will last a lifetime. Highly recommend for any parent looking for a fantastic camp for their child.

Response from the owner:Yay! Thank you
Even though my daughter isnt as musical as the others, there were many other options – so she chose photography and enjoyed the other aspects of the camp. At first, she was nervous for going and then as soon as she met friends, she was fine. Very empowered and inclusive camp, which was important for us to teach confidence in a difficult stage of life (middle school)!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for sharing this! We’re so glad your daughter found her place at Amplify and discovered the joy of photography and connection. It’s so important to us that every camper—regardless of their musical background—feels welcomed, included, and empowered to be themselves. Middle school can be such a tender time, and we’re honored to be a part of building her confidence and helping her form meaningful friendships. Thank you for trusting us with that experience! 💛📸🌈
Our daughter started last year at Amplify. She felt so at home with the incredible staff and super sweet group of girls. She grew a lot musically and had so much fun. We’ll be back this year! Thank you!!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re so happy to hear that your daughter felt at home at Amplify—it means everything to us.

My daughter loves Amplify for the warm staff, fun learning tracks, and girl empowerment messages. We didn’t know what to expect the first summer she went but it turned out to be the best way for her to get out of her bubble and explore a more creative side.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for sharing this! We’re thrilled to hear how Amplify helped your daughter step out of her bubble and tap into her creativity. It means so much to us that she feels supported by our staff and inspired by our focus on empowerment and self-expression.

My daughter is an avid musician, she’s always spent her summers playing and writing music, at home alone. When we found Amplify she was so excited! No annoying boys (lol), just rocking out. We’ll be back every year.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your awesome review! We’re so happy your daughter found her musical home at Amplify. There’s truly something special about being surrounded by a supportive, all-girl environment where creativity can thrive—no distractions, just pure rock & roll! We can’t wait to welcome her back for more songwriting, jamming, and unforgettable summer memories. 💛🎸🔥
When I first attended this camp I was very young and just got interested in music. I quickly made friends and always felt I had people to talk to. This camp helped me deeply learn about music and who I am as a person. It’s a great experience and I never miss an opportunity to go. Each year I go I feel more connected to music and each year I make more friends from around the world as much as reconnect with friends I made in the last.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for sharing your journey with us—your words truly capture the heart of what Amplify is all about. It’s such a joy to see how your love for music and sense of self have grown over the years, and we’re honored to be a part of that.

Our first experience with Amplify was a weekend camp for my stepdaughter and she LOVED it! She had a blast and we love the tech detox. She said she barely even missed her phone, she just wished she had it for pictures! Thanks to their generous scholarship we are able to send her for two weeks this summer, this time with a disposable camera ☺️. She is so excited to go back!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for sharing this! We’re thrilled to hear your stepdaughter had such a great time at weekend camp and that the tech-free experience was a positive one—especially in today’s screen-heavy world.

We can’t wait to welcome her back for two weeks of creativity, connection, and unforgettable memories! 💛📷🎶
My daughter had a wonderful time at Amplify both at the summer camp and the March Weekend. She became part of a band which performed at the showcase. They created their own logo and made shirts. The wrote a new song together and leaned a classic. They got to swim in the pool at the lovely school and visit the beach for beach days. A great combo of nature and music exploration. On top of that she said the food was amazing. She will definitely be back this summer Thanks to everyone at Amplify!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for this thoughtful and detailed review! We’re so happy to hear that your daughter had such a meaningful and fun experience at both the summer camp and March Weekend.

We love hearing how campers grow creatively while soaking in the joy of nature and community. We can’t wait to welcome her back this summer! 💛🎶🌊🍽️
My daughter had the best time and was in really good hands. She loved the food, her fellow campers and the staff. She also learned how to play the drums to boot!
She has talked about camp throughout the year and is SUPER excited to attend again this summer. I have also noticed a huge improvement in her maturity and confidence this year and I give Amplify a lot of credit for that. I am grateful to the staff and all the amazing things they do for their campers.

My daughter went first to camp all the way from Ohio alone!! Amplify offered a scholarship in order to make it affordable for our family. While at camp she learned to be a strong solid woman. She met new friends from all over the country!! What a great opportunity this camp is for her and our family!! The camp was easy to contact and I felt that my daughter was well taken care of from the minute they picked her up at the airport to the minute she was taken back for the long flight home. This is a big trust to allow these ladies to take care of my daughter so far away and I felt completely comfortable!! She cannot wait to get there again this year!!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for this heartfelt and powerful message. It’s truly an honor to support families like yours and to witness the strength, independence, and confidence your daughter gained during her time at Amplify. We know how much trust it takes to send a child across the country, and we’re so grateful you felt confident and supported every step of the way. It was a joy to have her in our community, and we cannot wait to welcome her back this summer for more growth, connection, and unforgettable memories! 💛✈️🎶

This was my daughter’s first sleep away camp without friends and we were all nervous. The staff was amazing making her comfortable and she had the best time with all the activities, her time being creative and making new friends. the first thing she said when she got home is she wanted to go back again.

My daughter went to Amplify for the first time last summer as a rising 3rd grader. It was the first time she spent any overnights away from home without family and she was very nervous, and honestly, so were we. We were hoping to find an activity for her that would help give her a little bit of independence and help to build her self-confidence and give her an outlet for self expression and boy did we hit the jackpot! Not only did she stay the whole week, but she didn’t want to leave at the end. We saw amazing growth in her in so many positive ways and are so happy that the experience she had at Amplify played a role in that. All of the staff and teachers were incredible; they were not only skilled but welcoming, comforting, safe and fun. The different tracks and activities available to the campers are amazing, and we heard nothing but rave reviews about the classes, the other campers, the staff, and the food! She is so excited to go back this year and spend two weeks. We are so happy we found Amplify and recommend it every chance we get!
We are so thrilled we found Amplify! My daughter loved her experience and is excited to return for 2 weeks next month. The Amplify Team of counselors and leadership have the whole sleep away camp experience dialed in. Amplify is a great opportunity for young girls to gain confidence and learn so much from collaboration and friendships.
This camp changed my life! I met so many friends that I will stay with me for a while. I learned a lot of new skills that I continue to carry with me to this day. I’ve been to this camp for 2 summers in a row and I will keep coming back! It’s such a safe and accepting environment that really encourages people to boldly be themselves. The staff is so lovely and so are all of the campers.
My child will be attending Amplify for the 4th time this summer. It has provided her with amazing collaborative and creative experiences in a life-giving and supportive environment. The kids are truly in it together without the typical drama; they get to be fully themselves, take creative risks, and create music and art together. I couldn’t recommend it more!
My daughter went to Amplify for the first time last summer. SHE LOVED IT. This spring they had a weekend mini-camp. She went and had a wonderful time. I can’t think of one criticism of this camp. My daughter was safe, enjoyed herself, and the staff is kind and responsive. My daughter is hopeful to one day become part of the staff.
I went to this camp last year for the first one week and I absolutely loved it. I can’t wait to go back for the two week session and see all the amazing people there again.
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!
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for this thoughtful and heartfelt review! We’re so happy to hear that your child had such a positive first experience at Amplify—it’s amazing to know she found new friendships, creative inspiration, and a deeper connection to music through the drums. Watching campers grow both musically and personally is what makes this work so rewarding. We’re so glad she felt supported and empowered, and we can’t wait to welcome you both back next year! 💛🥁✨
