  • "My son’s favourite camp - he loved every day! My son has done lots of camps before but this one he loved more than anything."

  • "My son has done the one day camp twice now and has loved it. Activities are fun and my son felt safe. Instructors are all really nice. Groups are relatively small which is great. They also reapply sunscreen throughout the day. Overall great experience. My son wants to keep going throughout the holidays!"
