KEY Date Review  
Click to report rating    5/6/12 basically runs as a "supervision" style camp, attracts parents to pay a low price but advertises more than it can offer. spoke to some of the staff, they seemed clueless as they weren't given a lot of instruction on what to do exactly. child did not have fun, told me he would rather stay home. will be looking into joining another camp this year. RID: 40968
Click to report rating    8/10/11 This camp promotes academic learning; located at various public schools. 2-wk registration mandatory. Quality of teaching depends on individual teacher. Leaders/staff unfriendly (no smiles, no greetings/talk amongst themselves rather than interact with kids). Poor communication with parents (none). Numerous "extra" fees. Options are NOT recommended (meal plan, child care, even field trips - look at schedule before choosing). Our field trip was changed without notice. Camp itself is affordable and OK if you just want a place to put your child for ~7 hrs/day. My child doesn't want to return next year. RID: 36680
