Many of the camp counselors come from different parts of the world and have amazing experiences to share. They are great with the kids. They help the kids grow and become better people.

I'm very disappointed with Camp Pillsbury's handling of the Covid pandemic. My daughter was…read morescheduled to go to camp the summer of 2020 and when every other camp shut down and refunded the fees, Camp Pillsbury refused to do so. They said I could have a credit for 2021. Now, they have changed their stay lengths for this summer and my "credit" doesn't cover the cost. I've asked nicely for a refund and they won't even respond to me. I'm sad that after sending both my children to Camp Pillsbury for many years, they refuse to work with me on this.

My daughter attended this camp in the Bloomington location. Her counselor who checked her in and…read moreout was very immature and oddly didn't acknowledge me at all and only spoke to my daughter when I was standing right next to her, attempting to have a conversation. On Friday there is a parent tour hour that is hosted from 2-3. Due to work commitments I arrived at 2:30, most parents were walking children out and I couldn't find anyone who knew where my daughter was. She wasn't in the two places they said she would be. My recommendation is to send kids with a GPS watch if they are attending this camp. My daughter loved it despite not making any friends in this camp.

We rented Base Camp for an over night lock in for a high school girls basketball program's team…read morebonding event. Setting it all up was so easy! They were quick and responsive and everything was all planned via email which made things so convenient! They were straightforward about what to bring for the lock in. The night of, the girls had fun! Lots of space to run and around and be teenagers. All the girls had games the next day, so they came in and all said something about the temperature, some were too hot and some were too cold. One common thing was if they just had blankets on the floor, they were cold. The other minor thing that could be improved - online waivers. I had to manage all the parent waivers. Overall, a great experience! When we went there was only rock climbing and archery available - that said they got their fill of those activities, so we probably would not do it again next year.

The staff is great with him. They get that he needs some extra encouragement to focus and they find ways to make it happen. When he failed one of his challenges, he was heartbroken, but Master Boltz talked to him afterwards to let him know it was okay and how he could improve. Mike engages him in each class, works so hard to keep him focused, and provides so much encouragement among the way. He's going to summer camp again this summer, and we're signing up his little brother to start Little Dragons in the fall. We're big fans and would recommend The Gym to anyone.
