Camper Parent
Very well staffed
Very well staffed - I think I counted 15 staff at one time. Boys got a lot of ball time, playing time, and encouragement.
Camper
This was the best one so far
Compared to other camps I’ve been to, this was the best one so far. And I liked the camp this year even better than last year.
Camper Parent
The facilities at Hendersonville First Baptist are excellent
Coach Maddux and the other coaches did an excellent job at this camp-one of the best my son has attended! The facilities at First Baptist Church Hendersonville were equally excellent. Thank you.
Camper Parent
Liked the evaluation that was sent home with my son
I really like the fact that the coaches sent home an evaluation of each child. That showed me what my child excelled in and what he needed to improve. Thanks!
Camper Parent
The kids were great
My son was the youngest camper and the smallest camper so I worried about his being accepted and he was easily immersed into the games/drills by all. The kids were great and he had a wonderful time
