We stayed in the cabins, ate in one of the cafeterias, and spent most of our time by the beach, in the wood shop, in the chapel (way too cold -- someone turn that air-conditioning down please!), and in the game room pavilion. The cabins were as clean as cabins could be with some bugs (it's summer camp, what do you expect?). One bathroom wasn't enough for a room of ten girls, though! The wood shop was cool, and the girls enjoyed hanging out on the beach nearby, jumping in the water or fishing from the pier. The game room pavilion had chairs and some games to play, but it wasn't as appealing as playing in the park, which was in the middle of everything. The cafeteria/kitchen staff was also very accommodating of my request for vegetarian food. The first year, I was too nervous about asking for special food since it was free, so I just dealt with it and ate meat for a week. The second year, there were more vegetarians among the camp volunteers, so we felt more comfortable asking for vegetarian food. They did a great job remembering us and offering alternative foods. The camp and conference center also has a lagoon, paddle boats, canoeing, a paintball arena, sand volleyball, a gym, some high-ropes course thing, and different paths through the woods for team-building or hiking. Great options and great, friendly staff. There's also a lot of other lodging options and other spots to dine, but our kids didn't spend their time there. I guess three camps could occur at the same time. It's just a summer camp spot, but it's a great spot. I'm looking forward to next year!

Kids are strangers as they leave the cars but in bare minutes, they have found great, wholesome friends.

Me and my mom went to tour a camp called Phantom Lake YMCA Camp Children's camp in Waukesha County, Wisconsin. We went met staff and they learned about me. I showed up to camp 2 weeks later and the staff does not remember me (which is funny because it is the first week of camp). The staff member that toured me said "who are you" as my first impression. tThen later in the week a child age ten named ASPEN touch me in my private parts and grabbed me while I was in the shower. I was feeling so scared that I did not tell any camp members. When I got home that was the first thing I told mom and when she talked to camp they said " we have no record of this happening your child is lying". Nothing happen to the camper. Another mess at camp was counselors would change every night because of night meeting so annoying. I also was constantly being let down by adults for not holding up to there promises like I asked to shower in the heath persons shower and they said they would come on Friday I stood outside of my cabin waited 1 hours then had to go to the final night in my bathing suit because I had no time to change in to real clothes. The staff was so mean and are unnice to camper with mental disability's I has to be a physical disability for them to care.

This review covers Janesville segment of trail beginning at the Rotamar Trail Head to the Mercy Hospital Trail Head. When I first heard of this trail I was real excited. It sounded like there would be many things to see and discover. I was disappointed to find it was paved. Not the entire segment, not yet anyway but most of it was. I felt that took away from the experience but did not deter me from continuing on the adventure. Even for this segment, we've never covered the whole of it. We usually start at Randolph Rd as that's where we were staying at the time and ended up at Palmer Park. It's about 5 miles one way. I first walked the trail from Randolph Rd. to about Brunswick Lane. This was during the spring when things were starting to pop up. All kinds of plants were coming out of the long winter hibernation trying to stretch as high as they can to reach the sun. I wasn't too impressed at the point. It just look like weeds. When spring was about to roll into summer, weather wise, about the end of May or early June, we decided to ride our bikes all the way to Palmer Park and picnic there. We packed up our food and a few snacks with a few water bottles. I wasn't sure if my little guy G would make it all the way but would play it by ear and make decisions accordingly along the way. By this time, the plants, trees and everything else was buzzing with life. Wish I knew what they were. There were so many things to see, smell, explore it was all captivating, including for G. The trail exist within the green belts thats cut through the residential housing allowing for wildlife to co-exist with the community. I admire that. We have seen deer and other animals I don't know bc I couldn't get a good look at them. Also along the trail is a spray of colors, beautiful flowers fighting for the attention of the bees and others, spring out at you letting you know summer is here. Part of the trail follows along side a river that you could take a break by. It was nice to cool off a bit there and take pictures. By the time we reached Palmer Park we were famished for food. We sat down to eat in the park. We allowed G to have time to play in the park. This is his favorite park and we have fun playing with him. I wasn't sure if he would be able to bike back but he did with no problem. I believe the Ice Age Trail kept teasing him and he wanted to see what was around the next bend. Although the Ice Trail is under National Park Service and there is good information there, you can also get additional information from the Ice Age Trail Alliance... http://www.iceagetrail.org/ice-age-trail/ ...who has done much of the maintenance work and providing informative material to the awareness, education and maintenance of the trail to the benefit of all. They also offer several awards programs, one for completing the entire 1200 miles for those of you wanting elitist.
