Despite it being $500/child, the camp wasn't staffed properly for the number of campers. My kids couldn't get "help" with their robots and creations despite multiple requests for help. When I called, I was told the project was "too hard" and "it's hard to help everyone" and it would be better the next day. The issue here is that they shouldn't have allowed so many campers in if they don't have the staff to support it. My kids still brought home creations that "didn't work" the rest of the week. On top of this, the staff doesn't stay on top of disciplinary issues - my son was hit in the face and told staff but nothing was done. We won't be back...and I get the impression this isn't isolated to my kids and my experience.

Having the options to swim and fish on top of crafts and activities is a fantastic way to spend the summer for him. As a parent, I appreciate the longer than traditional summer camp hours compared to most summer camp programs that end mid day or later afternoon. The schedule here works best for my work schedule while letting my child feel like he was at a fun camp instead of at the school TLC program on school campus. When summer concludes all he talks about is how he misses it or how he can't wait for summer to come again. Added perk is using the snack shack as a lesson in budgeting and money management for him over the summer!!!! The staff is great and I highly recommend enrolling your child.

Camp is very disorganized and run by very young (and not well staffed) high school counselors. Our…read morechildren would come home each day reporting that another child had hit them, pushed thier face in the sand or sprayed them with sun block, among other problems. When our children reported the bullying behavior to the counselor, they would take no action. When one of our sons had their own behaviorial issue, Ms. Sylvia called my wife at work to pick him up. Because my wife took over an hour to get to the location (she was in a meeting at the time and had to commute), Ms Sylvia decided (as retaliation towards my wife for "taking too long") to suspend our child the following day. When we asked Ms. Sylvia for a full refund for the day she was not allowing our child to attend camp, she refused despite Campco terms that provide if Campco cancels camp for a child, it will issue a full refund. If you have young kids, I would stay away from this place and Ms. Sylvia!

!!!!!! Don't purchase any packages here. You will regret it…read more Be very careful before purchasing a large prepaid package from this learning center. Our family prepaid for a 60-hour package. After using part of the program, we experienced concerns regarding the instructional quality and teaching experience. We even requested a teacher change during the program due to teaching style concerns. Unfortunately, the issues persisted and the program became a source of frustration and stress for our child. We decided to discontinue the program with 44 hours still unused. What surprised us most was that despite having approximately $2,468 worth of unused hours remaining, the center refused any refund and relied entirely on a non-refundable policy. The only options offered were to keep the package on hold indefinitely or continue using services that were no longer working for our child. My advice to other parents: do not prepay for a large package unless you are completely certain the program, teachers, and teaching style are the right fit for your child. Teaching quality and student experience are important factors that cannot be fully evaluated in advance, and if problems arise later, you may have no practical way to recover the unused balance. I am sharing this experience so other families can make an informed decision before committing thousands of dollars upfront.
