★★J DerbyMy wife pulled in to pick up the child and there was two children fist fighting (10-11 year olds). It was broken up quickly, but what kind of camp is this? That would be strike one for this place. A couple weeks later we pick up our child, and the child tells us there was a boy calling names (racial slur). That's strike two. And the last reason for us not sending our child back is, another child was forcing ours to call her the "N" word.....yup that awful word. Not sure if the child was trying to provoke a fight. That would be strike three. I think this camp has quite the mix of city kids and most likely lower income families sending their children here. I thought it was important to write this review about the experience we had here. We don't feel like this is safe place to leave our child. P.S. I call it fight camp
