I like it
Great place !
Both of my sons went there for a couple years and I thought the pricing was definitely a bit low, but I was not complaining. However the saying "You Get What You Pay For" was definitely in the back of my mind.
This year I went to enroll them and almost fell out of my chair as their prices had SUBSTANTIALLY increased - although I bet it is barely enough to cover overhead and make a profit. I did not meet most of the young adults working the program; but there were a couple that stood out as INCREDIBLE and were able to get my oldest "exceptional" child to participate. They are students (I believe?) and there for the opportunity to work with kids, (the "environment" is provided for them) and therefore I do not think they need any type of extravagant salary and I certainly am NOT dismissing the difficulty level of their jobs (IF performing at 200% on a daily, regular basis). Obviously as parents our main concern is the safety of our children - and that place is PACKED!!! It can be a bit overwhelming even for a "typical child" but I believe most of the young adults do a decent job, and I appreciate them for giving their best for my/everyone's kids. Compare their prices to ESU's Warrior Sports Day Camp (this is the best one yet: ESU's "For 'Special' Kids" - it is based upon the hours they attend. I am certain I believe I received the information correctly and the "special kids" get charged by the hour and from 8-4 would be (7) courses costing parents $915 for a full day - INSANITY and ridiculous considering that all parents are struggling but having an exceptional child where incomes become limited, I do not know who can really afford this and think our politicians should put changes into effect immediately to help!!
In the end, what can a working parent do? Kids typically want to go to camp and parents have to fork it out. With that being said, I certainly HOPE that my kids are having a great, safe time and the camp is incorporating some learning activities into the kid's days to keep their minds active prior to their return to school.
They like the camp but Mom wishes it was more affordable and I HOPE THAT THE LIFEGUARDS ARE BEING COMPLETELY ATTENTIVE TO WATCHING EACH AND EVERY SINGLE CHILD - AS STATED ABOVE, IT IS INSANELY CROWDED & HECTIC THERE. THANK YOU TO THE STAFF!
