Jeffery W. - Camper I cannot wait until next summer so I can go back to camp. I had such a great time this year. All of the coaches were so helpful and loved to offer advice.
Penny A. - Parent My son just got home from camp this past week and he still is wearing the shirt he got as a prize for camp. I don\'t know how you put on such a flawless camp. We will definitely be sending him back to camp next year.
Nicole F. - Parent My husband and myself were so happy to see our son enjoying playing lacrosse. The coaches definitely were great at mixing up playing lacrosse and having fun.
