What families say
“Vera said she's not sure it could be better! Nice, small group, great location! She said it was really fun!” — Summer Camp Parent Testimonial
“My child developed skills related to independence, problem-solving, and resilience... I absolutely love that the camp attracts a wide variety of kids different schools, ages, different racial backgrounds, etc. This contributes to my child's ability to relate to others and find commonalities across differences.” — Summer Camp Parent Testimonial
“The new building and back to the Lake Merritt location is GREAT. Bill (Instructor) creates a perfect learning atmosphere.” — Summer Camp Parent Testimonial
