And as a parent of color, this is greatly concerning , because your child will be treated a certain type of way because of the color of their skin. This camp has very deep, rooted, racial problems And you will fill it. This camp is very racist and it is not hidden whatsoever This camp also has a big problem with having people work with them and not having them on Payroll. There are former employees that have worked for this camp and still have not gotten paid. this camp also has a big sanitation issue. It is very very nasty and unsanitary. They provide beds that previously have blood stains and dirt on them. The bathrooms are very very dirty and the public shower bathrooms as you can see in the pictures are very unsanitary.

There are piles of hay left out for kids to feed the horses and also a hand washing station near the barn. There are tons of toys peppered throughout. The toy lawnmowers were a big hit with my group. There are many wagons available for anyone to use. Many picnic tables make sitting down for lunch easy. There is a shaded sandpit with rocking chairs around it for the adults to relax. There is a little stream of water for kids to play in as well. Plenty of parking and lovely staff. It was $7/adult and kids under 2 are free.

I'll update my review at a later date but today I came to tour the facility. The young lady at the…read moredesk gave a very good tour and answered all my questions. I was once a member at the Y in a different county so I was doing a lot of comparisons to see if I would like it before I committed. I found the staff to be friendly. The facility was clean. The locker room to the pool needed to be cleaned and the shower curtains need to be replaced immediately. The equipment was clean and neat and the floors look very nice. The boat area was neat and the path at the lake was nice. There were a lot of people working on and watching the football games as this was a Sunday. There were a few teenagers inside but the majority were grown adults. Not sure it will be the same during the week but I'll see. The parking lot was neat and no crowds of people. Seems like a mature crowd was there. I saw older seniors and millennials working out. Middle aged men and women. I saw a lot of younger adults in the yoga room. So, I look forward to beginning my workout journey at this facility.

Students have the option of baking camp (they bring home daily baked goods) or cooking camp. My son did the later. They learn food prep and clean up, how to properly sauté, chop, hold knives etc. They prep the daily lunch that is served for all the students. The bakery group usually sends home daily baked goods with this group in exchange for lunch. The last day parents are invited to feast on all the recipes that the students learned to make throughout the week.

My daughter did this camp and thought it was a waste of time. Unlike other cooking camps where kids…read moremake their own dishes, this is a line cook approach so she would only do a small part of a dish like cutting onions or kneading dough. She said she didn't get to actually cook anything. The instructors cooked which defeats the purpose of a class like this. The foods the classes prepared became lunch for everyone but then my daughter's class had to clean all the pots, pans, silverware, dishes etc. They spent an hour and a half washing dishes daily! For a $600 camp I did not expect that. The students were not allowed to bring home any leftover either (in the savory food camp). I can't recommend this camp.

Once I parked, I was not disturbed by anyone or anything. From the lot where I was parked, there was no access to the park's wifi but I had four bars of LTE on Sprint. The park's water was cold and clean. As clean as the stuff I get out of the tap at my own home. As I mentioned, lot 47 was quiet. It was also level and had a water tap, power hookup and sewer access. I hooked up when I arrived and had no issues at all. One note is that the Harris Speedway is about a mile and a half away. There was some engine noises one evening but it ended by 9ish. It wasn't that loud but I would guess it's louder when they have a full race. http://www.harrisspeedway.com/hms/ [Review 14863 overall, 365 of 2021, number 2818 in North Carolina.]
