Everything from registration to finish was perfect!
July 23, 2021: Everything from registration to finish was perfect! This was a great first sleep away experience and an awesome week of lax! My son enjoyed time with friends, but also improving his skills in a fun and challenging environment. The highlight was definitely winning “most improved” for his group. He can’t wait to go back next summer!
