I was excited about the possibility of my son attending Ramapo because of its mission and…read morereputation. Unfortunately, our admission process became much more complicated than expected. As an OPWDD family, coordinating approvals, support brokerage, and Fiscal Intermediary (FI) requirements can already be extremely time-consuming, and navigating those systems often causes significant delays that are outside a family's control. I was hoping for greater flexibility and collaboration during the enrollment process, but instead felt that the process became increasingly difficult and ultimately decided not to move forward. I appreciate the importance of ensuring campers are a good fit, but I believe families navigating complex disability-service systems would benefit from more understanding, clear communication, and flexibility throughout the admissions process.

We came here for a family weekend over Labor Day and had such a wonderful time! I didn't know what…read moreto expect, but the experience exceeded my expectations. There were so many activities to choose from--big swing, pontoon boat ride, sailing, kayaking, the giant lake slide, tie-dye, archery, axe throwing, rifle and BB shooting, climbing, candle making, and more. Most of the counselors were fantastic--great with kids and clearly passionate about what they do. The cabins are very basic, so be sure to bring your own chairs, sheets, and pillows, but the temperature controls made it comfortable. The meals had a nice variety and were surprisingly good for camp food. The last night's campfire, complete with a talent show and s'mores, was such a special way to end the weekend. While not all families were particularly social, the ones we connected with were great. Overall, we had a wonderful time and would definitely come back again!

I had sent my son to lake greeley for the first time last year, the summer of 2022, and he had a…read moregreat time. I had seen some postings and some information about 2021 and thought that while there were some drawbacks, it was important to get my son out of the house and doing something for the summer. He has been sitting around too long and I want him doing more. When looking around, there were numerous other camps in the area and other kinds of programs, but when I had seen what greeley offered to what the price would be especially compared to the other programs, I thought that it would have been a steal. I jumped on the offer for a 2 week session and luckily everything worked out. Greeley was great, the people were very welcoming and worked with the kids very well and my son made a number of new friends which is the bonus to him being up and moving.

My son participated in this camp during 2021. There were 14 young boys in one cabin with only one…read moreadult (we were told there would be only 8 kids in the cabin)! The kids were mean and cursed during the week and the camp did not address it. When I reported it to the camp directors (Mat and Rose), they never responded to my email. The many activities that were shown on the video were not available (the ropes course for example) due to being understaffed. My son actively disliked his experience. I will also say that this director responded to my review on google within 12 hours of my posting but as a parent I emailed and didn't hear anything for more than two weeks. This Director clearly cares more about image than actual responsiveness to parents or the camper experience. In fact, I am still waiting on a response to my email. We were not told in advance about activities being closed, and we were assured that although there were Covid staffing issues there would be enough staff to run a great camp. This was not my son's experience. There are many awesome camps out there and parents should know that the directors are unresponsive except to reviews.

Underneath, we are a family, a network of positive likeminded people from all over the world who share a love for sports and kids. And on the day-to-day level, we are a place where campers never stop smiling from the moment they wake up until the moment their heads hit their pillows! We combine sports with life lessons and wrap it up in a one-week camp experience that stays with campers long after they leave. ISTC offers a variety of overnight programs. Our most popular program is All Sports, during which campers get to try an assortment of sports ranging from basketball and soccer to cricket and rugby, not to mention rock climbing and jet skiing, and IXTC is our adventure program designed specifically for our older campers. No matter what you're looking for, there is a program at International Sports Training Camp that is right for you!
