Our 11-year-old son went here for the first time this summer. When I dropped him off, he was nervous and scared; however, I told him if he didn’t want to stay, I would stay in his place after getting the tour. The staff were great and communicated with us very well. This camp made a big difference in our son, and improved his confidence in himself; and he has shown more independence without seeking approval from us, the parents, before doing things on his own. We are planning to send both of our boys there again next year.
