"My family and I (Kaushal, Minal, Deena & Nikhil) had a wonderful time at the Atlanta Hindu Camp in July 2010. I personally wanted to send a heart felt thank you for all the efforts of you & your instructors/volunteers/well wishers. My children's interest in Hindium has magnified tenfold times with the right mixture of Indian/American food/music/games - and the whole atmosphere."

"Youth Camp has been a blessing in every possible way for our family. Not only my children ages 8 and 6 benefitted from the pious atmosphere, myself and my husband experienced spiritual awakening too. We attended this camp last year, couldn't have missed it this year. It's so well planned and organized that my children waited anxiously for the entire year to come back. Among the countless benefits, there are some that I would really like to highlight. I witnessed great enthusiasm among the kids (of ages 5 to 15) to learn about Hinduism, re-incarnations of God, stories behind the festivals, Indian musical instruments, importance of prayer and how to pray as well as lessons on Vedic Math. They learnt a lot of Yoga postures. Children of different age groups had classes appropriate for their ages. The curiosity of the innocent minds were answered so very well by none other than didi ji. A lot of times I felt that I have no knowledge as a parent to answer their questions, felt glad to bring them to the camp. Some of the most fun filled games and activities like Cricket, Pittoo, Musical Chairs, Tags, Statue, water slide, lake side picnic were blasts. Children learnt many melodious keertans they sang with a lot of devotion. It was amazing to see that towards the end of the camp, every child had learnt an instrument e.g. Dholak, Manjira, Harmonium and Jhanjh. There were dramatics, singing, dance and art classes for the children. We celeberated Guru Poornima, Holi, Govardhan Puja, Shard Poornima and ended the camp with a grand cultural program. Playing Holi like we did in India was the biggest hit among the children. An animation movie "Vrindavan's Darling" was another favorite of the kids. We had separate sessions for Adults. My most favorite was morning Nagar Sankeertans to the lake followed by didi jee's lectures on Geeta and other scriptures. In a nutshell the camp taught my children and us how to keep God with you in whatever you do & wherever you go."

"As the Indian Community migrates to the west, many of the core Hindu values are lost in the assimilation of the American culture. This Hindu Camp is a place where children and parents and come together and learn first hand the beauty and joy of Hinduism. All the foods, activities, sleeping arrangements are carefully organized for a fun filled and educational experience. In fact anyone of any background can come to this summer camp and learn about Yoga, vegetarianism, nature, and the pastimes of Krishna. There is never a dull moment with activities like Holi, water slide, cooking classes, cricket and musical chairs. The discussions with Didiji are exiting and the volunteers are outstanding in accommodating everyone. This is a "Not-to-Miss" opportunity."

"My boys and I really loved the camp. I think as a parent this camp was so good for my children because this was the first time they were exposed to singing religious songs and introduced them to bhajans and kirtans. Just singing RADHA GOVINDA, GOVINDA RADHA has stayed with them. This simple chant is so powerful that it has stayed with them and they sing it "ON THEIR OWN" when they are in the car with me or even when doing chores in the house! This is so amazing for me because they have never shown this type of behavior before and it has such a calming effect on them. I am just so happy we went to this camp!"
