The quality of staff is always the best and my kids come home every camp day full of stories and big smiles.

We absolutely love Cali Camp!…read more I have two boys, and both have had an amazing experience there. My older son loved it so much that he is now becoming a Junior Leader, which says everything about how meaningful Cali Camp has been for him. My younger son, who is in 2nd grade, went for the first time last year and is already so excited to go back. What really stood out to me was how quickly they both adapted. My younger son joined not knowing anyone and felt welcomed almost immediately. Both of my boys felt included from day one. The staff is incredibly caring, supportive, and attentive. You can truly feel that they work hard to create a safe, joyful environment for the kids, and as a parent that means everything. The activities are fantastic: well planned, age appropriate, engaging, and fun. The natural setting is also beautiful and feels especially important these days. My boys came home with confidence, stories, friendships, and summer memories they will cherish forever. And the camp spirit is real. We still sing the silly songs at home, especially the announcements song whenever we have a family announcement, and the birthday song too. I cannot recommend Cali Camp enough. It has been such a special part of our family's life.

Unfortunately I wanted to love this camp but things took a turn for the worst on the last day of my…read moredaughter attending this camp. Before I get in to that - the general improvement would be to : Send out an email introducing you to all staff and counselors, as well as a daily or even every other day general idea of what activities took place that day. You will not meet anyone. On the first day of camp a counselor comes to your car and gets your child, that is as much interaction as you get with staff. Their parking instruction email is more in depth than any other piece of information you will receive regarding your child. Which brings me to the parking situation. On the last day, my daughter excitingly (attempting to) get out of our vehicle with a smile on her face and a few bestie gift bags in hand was met by a smiling Counsler ready to help assist. My child lock was stuck and so I had to manually lift the lock and help, but while doing this, Deborah Turobiner came up anxiously and loudly saying "WE HAVE TO KEEP THIS LINE MOVING" very condescendingly and aggressively whisking my child away (along with a few other snooty remarks). I contemplated turning around and getting my child but knew how excited she was for the last day. I decided I would write an email to the director acknowledging my appreciation for Deborahs dedication to ensuring everyone get to camp safely.. but that she could go about it with a better attitude .. A few hours later, I received a phone call from a counselor that "my daughter was in the art class decorating glasses and her own glasses have gone missing". I then got a call from the director "your daughter was changing for a fashion show and put her glasses in her pocket" (nice - putting it all back on the 7 year old" Days and days go by (I said I would give it a week for them to find them until I would seek compensation" these are medically necessary glasses.. my daughter has very weak eyes that cross without them) They claimed they found them! Woohoo! I head over pick them up only to pull off, have my daughter put them on to say "these aren't mine mom" I pull over. Same color glasses.. different brand and smaller. I sent a receipt showing how much I had paid for the glasses a WEEK prior but the director had the audacity to say it wasn't an itemized copy. As if I would LIE about the cost of the frames. It wasn't until I posted on social media that I got a response saying this situation would be handled. Parents ask yourself this: If a business who is responsible for children could lack accountability for weeks over.. glasses.. would you trust them with more serious situations. Any rebuttal to this review would just go to show they have a very difficult time taking swift action and accountability.

My kids have been going to Art Camp for seven years!! Every year they ask to attend more weeks…read more Before and after Covid, and even through it virtually, my kids have enjoyed so many activities from cooking, science, magic, games, theater, and so many more. They come home each day tired and full of stories about their day. The Art Camp owner and directors make sure each kid has a place to find their fun during their week(s) at camp. This camp has become an automatic part of our family's summer plans and often winter/spring breaks as well. I highly recommend Art Camp- as I always tell people, it's not just art!!!

Extremely Disappointed - Do Not Send Your Kids Here…read more My son attended Camp Keystone last summer and loved it, so we were excited for him to return. Unfortunately, this year has been a completely different--and deeply upsetting--experience. At pickup, my 6-year-old was in tears and told me that a 13-year-old Counselor in Training yelled at him that he was "tired of him" and then threw him to the ground. Yes, my son had thrown a piece of chalk--something we've addressed and made clear was wrong--but the violent and aggressive response from an older child in a leadership role is completely unacceptable. Worse, there was no adult supervision when this happened, and no camp staff informed us. We only found out from our son. When I contacted the camp, they minimized the incident and failed to take any real accountability. The 13-year-old was not dismissed, and in fact, is being allowed to remain in the Counselor in Training program and return next summer to supervise other children. The camp's own Code of Conduct says it will not tolerate violence--but they are clearly not following through. This was not just a kid-to-kid disagreement. This was a teenager in a position of responsibility physically assaulting a child half his age. If Camp Keystone does not take this seriously, parents should. I can no longer recommend this camp to anyone. There is a complete lack of oversight, accountability, and concern for camper safety. We will not be returning, and I urge other parents to think twice before sending their children here.

Our two boys have been coming to Breckley's Bullpen for batting cages and camps for years, and in…read morethe last few months one of our son's started private lessons with Coach Alex. The improvement has been dramatic. Our son who's been doing private lessons has been getting the barrel on the ball consistently, hitting the ball farther, and in just the last month he hit three over-the-fence home runs (a first for him). Josh, the owner, is also genuinely one of the best. He has gone out of his way to accommodate our kids' busy schedules and clearly cares about the families who come through his facility. Excellent coaching, great culture, highly recommend. A long time ago we once went to another baseball facility for a camp and it was not a positive experience (older kids saying things like "youre trash" etc.. with little supervision) and we did not go back. So glad we found Breckley's after that, it's been night and day, we could tell the difference from the first time just by how the other kids acted. If you're looking for somewhere to help kids that love baseball get better I cant reccomend Breckley's enough. They'll learn skills and sportsmanship and will be overseen by someone who really cares about them and about having a place that's a great place for kids to go.

It's also a PUBLIC park, I picked up my daughter one time and there was a homeless MAN in the women's restroom! I saw HIM walk in, and three little girls wearing camp t-shirts ran out screaming!! I saw four teenagers smoking grass on the swings right by a the kids!! I don't get how this place is still open.
