★★★★★Samantha LeeOur kiddo had his 9th birthday party with the Old City Team and it was amazing! 2 hours of engaging, physical play customized just for the birthday boy. The team took care of set up, coaching, and clean up. Perfect for a winter birthday.
★★★★★Lindsey O'Crump CrowOur 4.5 year old was a camper at the inaugural Old City Camp, and he has had a wonderful experience over several weeks. They ran the energy out of these kids, and we were happy to pick up a "good" tired kid at the end of each day. We also really enjoyed the friendships our son made - it was a really enriching experience to build relationships across age ranges. We'll definitely be back next summer.
★★★★★Jason SaxeThis was an excellent camp with a good balance of activities. While there was plenty going on, I felt like there was a lot of unstructured time. Even though she didn't have anyone she knew from school at the camp, my daughter was definitely excited to go back. We originally signed up for one week and added a second because she liked it so much.
★★★★★Jen BarrieMy very hard to please 6 year old declared on the first day of camp that this is his "favorite camp ever". This is the first time he's ever said he liked a camp on the first day, and he continued to enjoy it all week, telling us he wants to do it for the entire summer next year. He loved the mix of swimming and other sports with the ability also get out of the heat and play four square and other games inside. He really enjoyed the mini-triathlon. He had a great time with the other kids and great counselors. We'll definitely be back.
★★★★★Amy BaroneMy child attended Old City Swim summer camp this year for 3 weeks and absolutely loved it. She was outside playing all morning and swimming in the afternoon (swim lesson and free swim). They were very responsive and receptive to ideas for the camp. We're so excited to go back again next summer!
