What parents are saying…

Carlene is both very knowledgeable and caring. She incorporates excellent learning experiences into each day of fun for our son.


This camp was a wonderful find for my boys (age just-barely-3 and almost-7). They came home happy, tired, dirty, and full of smiles and stories of the adventures of the day. Instructors did a great job of keeping different age groups entertained simultaneously. They meet in a different region of the park every week so stays new week after week. And I love the flexibility of signing up for individual days vs committing to a full week. I cannot recommend this program highly enough!
