July 2, 2022: My grandsons LOVED this camp. Loved thier counselor Tucker. The camp director was very positive and tried to instill in the campers valuable life lessons. We liked that many skills were taught, focusing on one each day. They loved playing baseball games. Both boys want to return next year. They loved meeting other kids and everyone was respectful of each other, especially since the campers were of varied abilities.
