This was my son's second year at Milepost 35, and it's hands-down the highlight of his summer. The…read morecoaching and counselor team--Ezra, Owen, Aiden, Finley, and Tate--were absolutely fantastic. They gave him thoughtful advice, individual attention, and tons of encouragement, helping him level up his skills in a big way. The riding area is super well-maintained, with a great mix of features for all levels. Whether it was jumps, technical trails, or skills zones, there was always something new to try--and it was all set up in a way that felt challenging but safe. Yes, the cabins are a little rough around the edges and the food is just okay--but honestly, that's not why you come to Milepost 35. This place is all about the riding, the coaching, and the community. We'll be back every year until he ages out. Highly recommend.

Would recommend based off the service received and looks of everything. Affordable skate time that I'm definitely coming back for!

Judging from other reviews and what I witnessed, Kaleen might be a great 1-on-1 coach but her camps are not managed well. She looked angry/frustrated 90% of the time while her teaching assistants appear scared at her; perhaps it was due to dealing with such a large group of students. The younger and older kids are separated into different groups. Kaleen and another teaching pro (Paul?) concentrated on teaching the older students while they had teaching assistants (high-school minors) babysit the other half. I saw several young kids just standing around bouncing balls and doing nothing tennis-related for quite some time. I went up to talk to Kaleen and the teaching assistants to ask for feedback, and I did not get anything useful. Toward the end of this camp, my child doesn't even know how to hold a tennis racquet. I spent about an hour correcting things she learn and didn't learn, now she can properly hit a ball and have correct foot work. This proves that the teaching assistants didn't provide enough attention and inexperienced to teach others. I regret sending my kid there and I would never enroll at their summer camps again. Save your money for private lessons and don't expect your child to learn anything at their camps, especially if you think they will be part of the younger half of students enrolled. Advice for K-lean's Tennis: Try to focus on students of all ages in your camp -OR- train your teaching assistants to do a better job.

Oregon is awesome for skateboarding…read more Unlike the suckers in California, the parks here are free and unmonitored, meaning that you don't have some power-jock cop standing around issuing tickets to teenagers for not wearing helmets or pads. This alone is reason enough to move here and waste your life away on a skateboard. Sure, it rains 80% of the time and it gets a little chilly in the winter, but as far as I can tell, Oregon is far ahead of the curve in spoiling it's residents with free, fun, creatively-designed outdoor skateparks for (almost) every skill level. This is largely due to the efforts of 'Skaters for Portland Skateparks' (http://skateportland.org/) whose mission & vision is to 'create a comprehensive system of world-class public skateparks in Portland, Oregon' and 'to make skateboarding safe and freely accessible to every skateboarder, every day, for everybody's benefit.' If these guys had been around when I was thrashing in my basement at age 12, I'd probably have a much larger skill set to work with at these places. But that's okay. Glen Haven park is located directly next to Madison High School on NE 82nd (which means that it's literally crawling with children if you happen to be there after school hours or anytime during summer vacation). The park is very fun, but only when you are able to go during 'off' hours, when the child-collision factor is low. I recommend very early mornings or between 9am-2pm during school days. And for the record, it boasts the following: A 5,500-sq-ft street course and 5,500 sq ft of "tranny" (transition) area. The tranny area includes a 9'-deep "peanut bowl" with a 4'-deep shallow end with stairs and a separate rectangular bowl. The street area includes hubba ledges, stamped brick bank, banks, ledges and manual pads, handrails, stairs, two pyramid hips, and extremely steep quarter pipes. While it's wonderful that Portlanders are so supportive of skateboarding, there are a few things I'd like to get off my chest, which will hopefully make things a little easier for all of us: 1) Parents. Please use some goddamn common sense. It's a skatepark. For skateboarders. DO NOT let your 4 year old son or daughter ride their tricyle/razor scooter/rollerblades through the park while people are skating. EVER. There is nothing they are doing in the park that they can't do a thousand times more safely in your driveway or an empty parking lot. And if you don't agree with me now, you will when your kid inevitably gets plowed into by a huge burly dude covered in tattoos. 2) Mom & Dad. Before you decide to throw your kid into the shark tank, make sure he can at least tread water. Skateparks really AREN'T the place to learn basic things like pushing, turning, or general balance. There is absolutely NO POINT in dumping your kid into a bunch of huge obstacles (and in the way of older, impatient skaters) when he doesn't even feel comfortable rolling yet. Give them some time to develop basic skills in the driveway or empty parking lot, like the rest of us did. Or better yet, take them over to the tennis courts and have them bug those guys for a while. 3) Skate Coaches. Look, Dad, I know you are bummed that your kid has no interest in baseball and just wants to shred all day, and it's cool that you go with him to the park and support him while he skates. But DO NOT scream at your kid from the sidelines, demanding that he try a particular trick. This isn't a competition. Your kid isn't on a football field. And when you get all aggro about it, it isn't fun for your kid or anyone else that has to listen to you act like a dick in public. I hope this helps.

I went to TCBC as a kid and had a blast, I worked here for two summers and grew tremendously. Looking at it from a business stand point it is always growing and progressing, the new cabins and the activities they have whilst having counsellors take kids on hikes is something that truly makes a returning customer, but it also is the experience and the things kids and young adults learn that makes this camp what it is. It changes people, it changed me. I have several girls I stay in contact with even as they are heading into college, it is a truly humbling experience to have the blessing of teaching them that God loves them, that he sacrificed for them and they are forgiven. To make bonds with others and build trust and a community with other followers. I would recommend you to visit their web page if you are interested, and maybe stop by the Facebook if you have time. I'm sure any questions can be answered, by one of the owners or a past staff member. It truly is like a family, and I know I could count on them to take care of my kids if I was to send them to Trout creek. Hope this helped!
