What do you like about your New Discoveries experience?

Our daughter loved her experience here. To us it doesn't seem like a job for the counselors, it seems more like a passion. A very happy place to be.

What do you like about your Explorers experience?

My daughter is really enjoying the Explorer's Camp program. One thing I would like to see improved would be better communication between the the program and the parents. For example, the kids went to Jenkinson's Boardwalk the other day, and we weren't sure if we should pack a bathing suit and towel or not, so we brought everything. A clear, straight forward pack list would be amazing for trip days.

What do you like about your Camp at the Lake experience?

This was my son's first year doing Camp at the Lake and he really enjoyed it! He's age 7 and was in Junior Village and he came home daily with stories about new friends he made. The Color Wars day was a highlight and he talked about it all weekend! Though he said the days were long, he was also disappointed that he did not get to stay late for aftercare. A few things he didn't like were the port-a-potties and how long it took for everyone to line up and change at the end of the day.

What do you like about your YBA experience?

YBA was amazing! My son spend 5 week with the camp and first- learned a lot, second- he made friends, third- further developed his love for this sport. The couches are hands on and you can tell that they care. OLL is also a great location. I guess the only downside to the location is how hot it is inside. AC would have been nice. Or perhaps more sprinkler days. Also, big plus when you introduced one quick pool trip. Two of them a week or just a bit longer than 30 would be nicer. All good- we are happy with everything.

What do you like about your Camp at the Lake experience?

All 3 of my kids have been Camp at the Lake campers for the past 3 years, and they LOVE it! They look forward to it every year (Color Wars Week is their favorite)! I was so nervous about a full-day 100% outdoor camp (what about the lake, the weather, the rain the BUGS?!), but they are the least bit concerned about that stuff. They do SO many activities and don't even miss the devices or the TV while they are there! They come home hungry, exhausted and full of stories about their daily adventures. Camp at the Lake's family day is also top tier! It's the camp experience I wish I had as a child.
