Back in 2010 our daughter visited us in Washington, DC from Houston, TX and we were able to…read moreschedule her to attend Camp Sonshine for July and August & OMG, she absolutely loved it. She started getting up earlier and earlier each day as she was so excited to go back each day/each morning. She met so many great friends and loved the staff/teachers. Each day was a fun adventure and by the time we got home after work, she crashed out. She loved the swimming, the play time, the story time, everything was fun!!! In 2010, she was 7 years old. We still have the photos that her teachers gave us. I highly recommend this option for your child if you are seeking a summer camp. No complaints. Nothing to criticize. Simply the perfect camp for kiddos!

Both of my kids have…read moreattended the St. Peter's camp, and it is far and away the most engaging, enriching, and fun camp that they attend. The staff is engaged and helpful and do such a good job of making all of the kids feel safe and accepted. The St. Peter's program, while focused on creative and fun activities, instills values of teamwork, kindness, and enthusiasm. The program is not religious indoctrination, and you do not have to be Catholic or Christian to attend, but the joy that this program shares is a real thing.

Highly recommend. My son loved his time there as a camper, and my daughter really enjoyed being a…read morevolunteer. The camp leaders were great with the kids all around. They were respectful and I saw them being good role models for the younger ones. I love that it is a faith-based summer program where kids get to have fun and relax, too. We'll definitely be signing up for more weeks this summer!

We spent our Fourth of July at Terrapin and it was absolutely wonderful! From being welcomed at the…read moredesk (I am so sorry I can't remember his name!), to our awesome guides Justin and Jasmine, to Scott who helped at the swing and doing the belay to get us down - we truly enjoyed the whole experience (despite the unbearable heat this weekend). Justin and Jasmine made sure we stayed hydrated, and regularly brought us into the air conditioning to avoid overheating. They ensured our safety every moment we were there. The rope course was insanely fun, the giant swing and zip line were a blast and our favorite part was honestly the rock climbing! Justin and Jasmine were fantastic - we will definitely come back (preferably not during a heat wave haha) and hope they will be our guides again - every single person today made it memorable for my family! Thank you so much!!!

Wanted a kayak place that wasn't crowded with easy entry and exit. I couldn't find and promos but that's cool....the price for a double is comparable to most. Splurge for the 2 hours because it's only $10 more. Take in the sights and enjoy some conversation. Customer service was just right....before you knew it we were in the kayak and on our way...for the record I did most of the work

I have been going to this business for years and have now been to all 3 locations. The people working here are very friendly and helpful. The location of Quiet Waters is awesome, very serene place. A nice little walk from the parking lot about 10 mins surrounding by beautiful trees and wineberries. Also cool that they have classes and yoga SUP. This was one of the highlights of my trip. Thank you.

So, I got to check out the grounds around the main building before the bride and groom arrived for rehearsal. They have a wonderful wandering Garden with Fountains and water features. I could sit by a loud water feature for hours. The wedding was in the garden, but the facility had prepared the Veranda in case the rain didn't clear up. In addition to the new main structure, they have Historical buildings and Summer camps.

Ms. Laura and Ms. Stephanie put in great effort to connect and include our 4-year-old daughter in…read moregroup activities, and to friends in the classroom. Ms. Laura does a fantastic job of reporting to us each day on how our child is doing in the classroom, and provides us with specific examples of interactions she had that day, as well as activities she enjoyed and engaged with. She also lets us know when we are missed, or when our child is struggling a bit -- which we appreciate equally! We love the open, honest, and frequent communication. These pre-K teachers have helped us to feel confident that our decision to switch our child from her previous preschool to Goddard was a good one. She is receiving more warmth, individualized attention, and care in this environment than she was in the 30-child-classroom she was in at another school. We can see how much it's benefitting her. She is developing a sense of belonging, confidence, and lightheartedness. Her play has become more imaginative and incorporates concepts from lessons learned at school.

We were so excited when the Goddard School opened in our community! There aren't that many centers…read morein this area, and we were unhappy with the staff and facilities of the centers we had tried. Several centers seemed chaotic and disorganized, had staff that weren't trained and didn't promote developmental activities, or had poor communication. Maybe we have high expectations, but we wanted competent staff that were involved with our son beyond his basic needs, and a center that provided a nurturing environment for growth. Especially since the cost of daycare is so high in this area, we expected to have better quality childcare. The staff at Goddard is very caring, engaging, helpful, professional, and competent. The owner, Tracy, is great to work with and truly cares about making the center a great place for the children. The director, Mary Sue, is very caring and involved with the teachers and children in all of the classrooms. It was evident that our son's teachers, Erin, Vera, Tara, and Farrukh, were competent and caring staff who focus on the children's well being. Our son was far from being a model citizen - he had bad separation anxiety, cried a lot, and refused his bottles and naps at daycare. All of the staff, not just the immediate teachers, assisted with transitioning our son to the new environment, and they were open to trying anything and everything to make him comfortable and happy. The communication we received from them was thorough and frequent and we felt well informed of any issues on a daily basis. In addition to the staff being great, the learning program is designed with daily curriculums and our son is engaged in fun activities throughout the day. As an added bonus, the center uses the Tadpoles program technology to electronically send daily reports and pictures to our email and phone app. Overall our son is happier and more engaged at Goddard, and as parents we feel more comfortable knowing that he is being cared for by caring and competent staff.

I wish I could give 0 stars. I enrolled my daughter in the after school program. I emailed the…read moredirector of the program with my concerns, namely no adult supervision of the children; every time my daughter was picked up there were only teenaged volunteers present. While the volunteers were great, I am more comfortable seeing an adult supervisor present. In response to my concerns, the director of the after school made many excuses and was extremely rude. Mind you he was not present any of the afternoons my daughter was picked up. The school's director, Kelly, was awesome and patient during our 1st meeting. It's a shame she doesn't oversee the after care. It's the 1st week of school... but I'd rather find out that this program is a mess now than later. I can only imagine if an emergency were to occur and I had to meet with this director all I would receive is a bunch of excuses, no accountability, and rudeness. Drive past this place and look elsewhere.
