"This camp has been absolutely amazing- what a gem! My daughter has gotten to try new experiences that she never would have without this camp: going to farms and learning about crops and healthy food, going on a boat and learning about ocean health and marine biology, making sushi, going to a reptile farm, and lots of outdoor activities and learning about preserving the environment. Great for middle school age kids!"
