Get them involved in cooking young so they can help in the kitchen later. Anyhow they made cinnamon and sugar dog shaped bones (for ppl not made for dogs). They gathered flour in a cup. Idk u gwt a huge cupful thats overflowing and to tap it three times to get air pockets out and then go across it with a knife or something similar to get rid of extra flour and get a nice evening cup of flour. They loved that and my 4 year old ended up with flour all over her pants. SHE REALLY GOT INTO IT. LOL. Then to complete the dog biscuits they rolled dough, pressed the dog shaped biscuit cookie cutter into the dough and added a few swipes of butter to coat it and added a pinch of cinnamon and sugar and since its just a,short class, they let them try samples of them they had already baked. Next station was strawberries with mascapone icing. They used a straw to push out the stem and then cut it in half and added icing. Oh man think that was the favorite station for all three of my kiddos. My 4 year old was like, "mmmm." Hehe. The other two kids inhaled it without much talking which means it was agreeable to their sometimes fussy pallets. You know how kids are if ur a parent or nanny. FUSSY. LOL. NEXT and final station was biscuit/croissant making. It was equivalent to making Pillsbury dough biscuits but way cooler. They told them ingredients used to make dough, played with flour and made a cup of flour again as before, rolled out dough again, rolled into a small crossaint, buttered it and added spices to it. If there has been time to make it they would have done something for 8 mins I think. Idk what temperature tho. They tried yet another sample. Seriously I can't rave about this place enough. Staff was amazing. The bakers/employees hired are professional to be on TV, super helpful and FUN. They have cooking classes for like $30/kid or $99 for monthly classes I think she said. Not sure of exactly details but that's what I gathered. Take your kids there, you won't regret it and your kids will love it!!!!

This camp and its staff truly welcome and include EVERYONE who participates in their programs and use their facilities. The motto "Things are different here" pervades the camp, because EVERYONE is respected, encouraged and treated with dignity, quite a contrast from what some call "the real world." How much better our world would be if everyone treated others with dignity and respect. I am so thankful that my children have Camp Hanover memories, and that I have been privileged to serve as a volunteer. The camp is also a great place to hold a retreat.

I think it's because they do the same general thing week-to-week and there isn't a sense of goals or progress over time. I am also not a fan of their membership model. It's basically $100 a month and it just goes on infinitely until you choose to stop. I would prefer it to be structured more around "seasons" with a culminating show so the kids could feel a sense of growth, progress and pride. All in all - We enjoyed our time but will be looking for other gymnastics options in the future with a different class model oriented more towards growth.

If I am looking for a gift or card, their selection is fabulous with whimsical offerings from local artists. Gifts like socks, key chains, mugs, and a modest selection of options to fit your person's needs.

They have a really good selection of ceramics to choose from, and I liked that each piece has the price right underneath, so you know exactly what you're paying before you choose. They also have tons of colors to choose from, which gives you plenty of room to get creative. The space can get busy pretty quickly since there aren't a ton of tables, but it looks like they may be doing some renovations, so I'm interested to see how the space changes. They also have snacks and drinks available for purchase, which is a nice touch if you're spending some time there with the kids. The customer service was probably one of my favorite parts. They explained everything really well, were available if we had questions, and made the whole process easy. Once you finish your piece, they let you know the turnaround time, which is about a week. Overall, we had a really nice experience, and it was such a fun activity to do with my daughter, I'd definitely come back to paint another piece and excited to see what the future holds with the renovations.

Since our scout leader actually made the reservations and put everything together, all we had to do was pay for each family member, fill out health forms, and have our temperature taken at the check-in tent at the entrance (COVID guidelines). When we got to our camp area (12), we were able to drive our car to the camp area, drop off our camping things, and park in the parking lot. The camping area was great. Leaves were everywhere, but we had a rake to clear our area for pitching the tent. We actually had an outlet for electricity which was a blessing! We used it to fill our airbed! We were next to the latrine and a long sink with running water and lots of soap! There was a firepit available. During the weekend, we were able to hike to the shore of James River and collect lots of shells. We walked to the obstacle course and ball pit. There was a Trading Post mini store where they sell essentials we might have forgotten. They also had a dining hall for what I believe was for their campers in the summer. This place is awesome! I would definitely recommend families to come here!!

Honestly just an incredible disappointment from start to finish. I was hopeful that the nostalgic…read morelook of the camp would lead to an experience similar to my childhood but this is the most disorganized mess I've ever had the pleasure of participating in, although the condition of their tents brought back memories because they are likely from the same time period and salvaged with duct tape. I don't see the point in having an agenda as it has been shortened multiple times already and it's the first afternoon. 95 degrees out and the only thing these kids really want to do is swim and play in the lake. Check in at 9am and swim checks til 11am (oh wait, that's right, they postponed that until late in the afternoon when storms were called for. That makes a lot of sense right? So now here we are and instead of being able to cool off, my child is playing with blocks. Events were scheduled through 5pm on Sunday but now I've heard that after lunch (12 noon) your essentially on your own and free to leave. So we start late, miss out on the events we actually wanted to do, and end early...next time I'll save the money and the headaches.
