"My daughter loves day camp! The activities that are available for the campers is what I mainly like. There are numerous other things that I like as well, such as how great and friendly the counselors are and the ability of the campers to to experience multiple activities, such as archery, horseback riding, ropes course, swimming, skeet shooting, and much more. We are excited to return next summer and our son will be attending camp as well!"
