★★★★★Brent HuSuper duper fun. I did it and had the time of my life. I remember going back home screaming about how exciting and inspirational everyday was. Definitely worth it. Plus, all the instructors are super nice and truly care about the kids.
★★★★★Elizabeth Embick (Lisa)This is a fantastic camp! My kids loved learning how to sail and came home happy and exhausted every day. The camp was well-run and they learned a ton. Both asked to attend multiple weeks.
★★★★★Solvig Sayre (The Sailing Foundation)This is one of the best junior sailing programs around. It's where I learned to sail a small boat 20+ years ago and it's great to see it going stronger than ever.
