★★★★★Taylor MolyneauxThis past summer was my 5 year old daughters first time at Summer Place. She loved the variety of activities to choose from. She really was able to build a schedule that perfectly fit her interests. She especially loved the swim lessons and her swim skills improved so much over the course of camp. The staff are amazing and I knew she was in good hands. She has been looking forward to next summer since camp ended. It was a wonderful experience!
★★★★★Perry FrancisMy son and daughter both attended Summer Place camp for 2 years. They love all the activities, swimming, cooking, art and performing. The one most important thing they loved about it so much was how well the staff treat the students. Keep up the good work Summer Place!!!
