★★★★Leanne LentzMy oldest son went to Sesame for 3 years as a camper from ages 5-7. It was his first camp experience but he did really well and never had any complaints. He was with pretty much the same bunkmates all 3 years which was great! He went from swimming with a floaty (and holding onto his parents in the pool) to swimming freely in the deep end and learning different stroke techniques. He went from not liking any sports to *trying* them but he loves gaga. He came home happy every day. The only reason last year was our last (and the reason for 4 stars) is we have a younger son now needing camp in the summer and there is no sibling discount.
★★★★★Gabriel RosenIt is a great camp for girls and boys there is fishing sports arts and crafts and so much more not to mention they have 4 swimming pools 2 small slides and a giant one
★★★★★Linda AbramBoth my grown children went to SR for many years and had fabulous experiences! Now my daughter’s children are attending next summer, the first of many summers I am sure. Howard and Dale are amazing owners, leaders in their field and wonderful people. I am thrilled that our family can keep this tradition alive! I would give them more stars if I could, that’s how impressed I am with their wonderful camp!
★abena oseiIm the mother of one of the camp counselors. This camp is the worst. Do not let your children work here. They treat the counselors terribly and pay them less than minimum wage. They are overworked and underpaid. They charge a lot of money for the camp and pay the counselors about 4 bucks an hour. It's the first job experiences for many of these counselors. Many of the counselors are children themselves and they do not bother to give them clear directions or instructions on how to be counselors. Very disappointing . DO NOT LET YOUR CHILDREN WORK HERE. DO NOT TAKE YOUR KIDS TO THIS CAMP
★★★★★Fern HelferAs a child, I loved attending summer camp! I became a teacher , and with summers 'off', I was able to return to my 'summer place' and return to day camp as a staff member. I joined the S/R Camp staff in 1992 and brought my children along with me to enjoy wonderful camp experiences. I have now been at S/R for almost 30 years and love providing campers with exciting summer experiences as the Nature lady! Camp is a wonderful place for children (campers) and young adults (staff) to get outdoors, away from screens and engage in meaningful social experiences!
