Great Big Theatre Company Camp Reviews / Evaluations

Parents' Camp Reviews / Evaluations: 2006 to 2018

For GBTC, one of our major priorities is the satisfaction of both campers and parents with the camp experience. Each summer, we distribute camp evaluation surveys to all of our camp parents / guardians. We use these results to evaluate the quality of each of our camps, and to set directions and allocate resources for the continual improvement of our programming.

We are pleased to be able to share these camp evaluation results with you. They represent the full results of our parent evaluation surveys over an thirteen-year period, from 2006 to 2018. The totals below are based on a tabulation of all responses we have received (a total of close to 5,000).

We take parents' responses very seriously, and we hope they will be useful to you as well, in considering your camp registration decisions. We are proud and delighted to share these results with you. We work very hard to ensure that, for each one of our campers, their time with us is memorable, enriching and enjoyable. We take particular pride in the quality of our staff, who are selected not only for their skill and experience but for their inspirational qualities, their energy and their enthusiasm, but also for their outstanding abilities in the areas of leadership and motivation. We also focus on ensuring that we are always accessible to parents, and available to listen to their concerns and feedback. We strive to ensure that the quality of our programming is second to none.

In our evaluations, we ask parents to rate each category on a scale from one to five: (1) Very Satisfied; (2) Satisfied; (3) Neutral; (4) A bit dissatisfied and (5) Quite dissatisfied.

(Note: The total number of responses varies across questions because not all those responding replied to all of the questions.)

For all categories related to the quality of the program and the staff, the total of Satisfied and Very Satisfied parents is approximately 96 %.

We have also added a selection of spontaneous (unsolicited !) responses from parents. Your responses are most gratifying and appreciated!

He had so much fun each day, loved the group of kids he was with and the leader of his group was fabulous! The play at the end of the week was fantastic!...I've never seen my son so thrilled to be performing in front of a group like that and he displayed so much confidence and spoke loudly and clearly...it was such a boost to his confidence. He was sorry when the week ended so I've promised him 2 weeks of it next summer! Thank you again for a wonderful program!
