I went for 3 years and the first two were fun but the third year ruined them. I did some sort of intensive that was specifically for people in 5th grade and was specialized for going into middle school yada yada. It was awful to say the least. We weren't in the cabins with the ac and running water, but rather in platform tents in another section of the camp. That part wasn't fun but not the worst. We had to brush our teeth using lake water and there were about 25 of us using one portapotty. Every meal they would pick one random kid to go sit alone about 100 yards away from everyone on the "isolation hill" with no explanation whatsoever. I was there with two of my friends, both of which got sick that week. Both of them were vomitting and had fevers and wanted to go home. They wanted to talk to their parents but the staff said the already called home and talked to them. Then one of my two friends passed out during capture the flag. No one knows how long she was out, but she woke up crying and not really knowing where she was. After another trip to the nurse they still said they couldn't talk to their parents. That night we slept outside. On the ground. Freezing cold. My other friend spent the entire night vomitting into the grass and the two of them only had one blanket to share. So yeah aside from that huge epidemic, the camp still sucked. We went on a tubing trip down the river and we got to a point were it was blocked off by a 7ft wall, so the main adult leader (I think her name was Regg or Reggie or something else that started with R) made us throw our tubes over it and then climb over fallen over trees so we could get to the top of the wall and jump off the other end. Then when we got to the other side, she made us all stop and have a mud fight against our will. She actually MADE us. If you didn't partake in it she would come up behind you and put a handful of mud on your head. One girl broke (or lost, I forget) her glasses during this mud fight and she couldn't see for the rest of the week and had constant migraines. So then it is the end of the week and we are more than ready to go home. Our parents come to pick us up and they ask how the week was. Those two friends I was talking about are both confused and they say "as good as it can be when you're vomitting" and their parents had no idea they were sick. The staff told both of them (numerous times) that they already called their parents and they weren't allowed to talk to them and their parents had no idea they were sick. So yeah 10/10 would not reccomend. The first two years I went were eh because I did the normal programs but because of the last year I would never reccommend going there.
