I truly believe that sending them to Camp Auxilium was one of the best decisions I have made for them. My 4 1/2 is already reading. Even my 3 year old reads a bit too. My oldest will be extremely prepared academically and socially for Kindergarten. I love the fact that the my sons' teachers always keep me informed of the activities and assessments of my kids. They have been going there since they were 2 1/2 years old. It is also very nice that the school have activities that include/invite the parents so I can witness my sons at their element/as they are learning. I am always at ease and know my kids are not only learning so much but are also in a safe fun and loved environment. My sons are always very happy and excited to go to school. I also love the location the school is in. The school is surrounded by nature and the grounds are just wonderful. They have swimming pools, big grounds to play in, the classrooms and the restrooms are tailored for their growing bodies. When I was searching for preschools, I saw a preschool that was just a building and an outside yard. As for my sons attitudes and behavior, they are compassionate, kind and respectful. My sons spend 5 days a week at Camp Auxilium and I believe school and their environment play a big part in forming my sons traits. I know this is a whole lot of gushing but that's because I really love Camp Auxilium and what they have done for my sons. My oldest will be going to Kindergarten this fall. I am very sad that he will be leaving this wonderful school. But if I can spread the word about this great school I'll do my best. Children are the future and I definitely want to have as much educated, kind, compassionate kids out there for my sons to interact with.

She had a tough end to her summer at camp but she was still wanted to return for the 2024 season. When we tried to login to our account to sign her up for the following summer, we were locked out of the program. After multiple calls to sort it out, we find out that she was not invited back to camp. The camp opted not to tell us that she was not invited back, they just removed us from the mailing list and locked us out of our account. Inviting her back is at their discretion. What is inexcusable and totally unprofessional is not telling us and having us find out by locking us out of our account. Someone had to actively remove our family emails from the distribution list and actively remove our login details from the Camp Minder program. After 3 years of camping with them, they had so little concern for our camper and our family that they didn't call us? This camp does not live up to their mission - they do not care about the families/girls that camp with them.

Camp Speers is nothing short of a nightmare. The first thing that happened to me when I got there…read morewas being told that I would be in a different cabin than my friends. This was a total surprise to me because I requested all of them and they requested me. After having to call my parents so they could beg the head leaders if I could switch they let me. Thank the lord that they even allowed that because if they didn't I probably would have run away. When I got into my cabin, I was greeted to ants in my bed and promised that I would get a cot. This cot ended up not getting delivered and I had to sleep on the floor for the whole week. After the ants spread through all of the yoga mat beds, did they actually do something. That something was them spraying a powder that did nothing to the ants. The ants came back the next day. When it was finally time to eat, I was expecting the food to be bad, but not inedible. We were served green French fries and half frozen chicken fingers. The option that me and my friends took were the salad bar. We ended up eating little protein that week which eventually leaded to fatigue and lightheartedness because most of our diet consisted of salad and pasta. When my friend finally had enough of the camp and was getting homesick, he only had one simple request. This request was to have a supervised phone call to his mom. After hours of crying, he finally gave up, with the compromise that the head woman would call his parents. We all suspected that she would leave all of the fact that he was lightheaded from not eating and the fact that there were ants in our cabin. This was confirmed when we asked his mother what the head leader said and she said he was crying about homesickness and did not mention anything else. The last thing I want to mention is the cleanliness of the camp. I left camp speers with a very severe case of impetigo that could only finally be treated when I went to a dermatologist. This was caused by the lifejackets, as the spots were exactly where the lifejacket rested on me. The least they could do is spray them with a hose every night. Instead they let them sit in a garage letting infection grow on them. No child should have to go through a camp like camp speers. This is based on opinion and your child might have fun but in my opinion the only good thing about the camp was the friends met along the way like Philip.

She enjoyed all the activities and tried new things that she likely would not have had an opportunity to experience such as: zip lining, fishing/boating, archery and ropes course. She got out of her comfort zone, tried new things and did not regret it. A big positive with this camp is that it has many other activities other than sports. My daughter is not into sports but there were so many other outdoor activities as well as science, art and theater that she enjoyed. She also got to do weekly horseback riding. My picky eater kid also loved the food here! I was shocked she was eating seconds at lunch (they are very generous in giving the kids more food if they are still hungry). And of course the bus picking up and dropping off right in front of your house is so convenient. We already signed up our kid for next summer. The summer camp bar has now been set high, as I don't think she will be satisfied attending any other camp after her fun Harbor Hills experience.
