Camp Sequoia reviews

I am excited to send my son to the new STEM academy in 2014.

My son has been attending Camp Sequoia for 3 years and will be attending this year. The first year he was hesitant in going, but now each year can’t wait to return to camp. He has the opportunity to travel with us during the summer but instead wants to go to Camp Sequoia. He has made significant improvement in his perspective taking, flexibility and conversation skills. He has made many friends and has become close to camp staff and administrators. I have always felt my son is in a safe environment surrounded by caring staff. We are confident our son will be successful in life and this Camp will be a big part of it. Overall, our son benefited greatly from this camp.

Under new directorship in 2014, with a focus on Social Learning still in place with a 2:5 staffing ratio, I am excited to send my son back for another incredible summer.

Please google the Director of this camp if you are considering sending a child to this facility. My child came home reporting many concerning events. I believe the program is well intended but poorly organized around the campers safety. Children stay in a dorm room with another camper - 2 per room. More than 1 safety event occured and had questionable follow up. The sad part is my camper made great friends and learned many new things. However, the risk associated with the structure and leadership is not worth the risk.

My son attended last summer reluctantly and begged to go back this summer. He said it is where he finally belonged and knew what it was like to be popular. The life lessons learned here cannot be duplicated in any other way. My son has friends from last summer that he kept in contact with all year. Such a relief to not worry about what is going to be happening. This is from a child who stays in his room 90% of his time at home to be outside doing activities and socializing is amazing!

My son went to Camp Sequoia it's first summer in operation. The camp was great. My son had a wonderful time.

It is my pleasure to write a recommendation for Ryan and Camp Sequoia. Having attended the day camp Ryan founded for two summers I can attest to the quality of staff and program that will found at Camp Sequoia in their first summer. It helps that Camp Sequoia will be located in such a prestigious facility as well! My son is very excited about the upcoming summer at Sequoia.
