why so fly kids camp?
SFK owner and mom of two, Tanya Fishburn, attended summer camp every year in her home town of Mililani Hawaii, from age 5 through 12. During her first year of college, she began her career working with children as a camp counselor for the YMCA. Tanya was promoted to YMCA Site Director at the age of 19- leading seven group leaders, and over 200 children, and has been working with children ever since.
When enrolling her own children in summer camp, Tanya found the camps in Los Angeles to be very different from the ones she remembered fondly as a child growing up in Hawaii.
While week-long specialized camps were ok sometimes, she missed the all inclusive camps that lasted all summer, and that included swimming, exciting field trips, outdoor play/sports, art, cooking, and other unique specialties, EVERY WEEK, all within one camp.
