What our parents say about Camp Interlaken:

Camp is a wonderful family tradition, and we are blessed that our children have been able to attend as much as they have!

He had a fabulous experience at camp, and I want to thank everyone at Interlaken. I know it was staff's hard work that made it so great for him!

My daughter had a great K'far Noar year.

Thanks for beginning her overnight camp life on such a positive note.

The pictures online are GREAT!

He wants to go 8 weeks next year. Oy Vey!

Great experience over the past few years. I would love her to return as a staff member.

All 3 of my older children love Camp Interlaken with all of their hearts. There must be something magical about the place! I, personally, never had the opportunity to go to a Jewish overnight camp. I am forever indebted to the Milwaukee Jewish community for enabling my children experiences of a lifetime at Camp Interlaken.

Our son loved the food at camp. Had a great time, loved the staff and campers. Camp was organized and made us feel that we send him to a very good place. Thank you!

Please pass along my compliments to the chef – my son is typically an extremely picky eater with a limited variety - but he LOVED camp food! I wish I knew his secret - to getting him to eat! Thanks again for another wonderful summer! We couldn't be happier with our child's camp experience!

Thank you! She was glowing when she stepped off the plane! Communication with us was superb.
