They couldn't wait to tell us about everything they had learned and created, which made for some fantastic dinner table conversations all week long. A special thank you to Ms. Simmy and Ms. Miles, who were incredible with the kids. Their enthusiasm, kindness, and ability to make learning so much fun truly stood out. It's clear they care deeply about creating a positive and engaging environment. Thank you to the entire ClubSciKidz team for providing such an exceptional camp experience. We couldn't have asked for a better week and will definitely be back for future camps! Note: they have multiple locations around Atlanta making it convenient for families to find a camp near them. Definitely check them out!

We were very disappointed with our experience at Club SciKidz Mini Medical School camp and would…read morenot recommend it. One of the main reasons we chose this camp was because it was advertised as a hands-on STEM experience with science demonstrations and activities throughout the day. Instead, my child came home telling us they watched multiple shows, including Danny Go, Wild Kratts, and The Magic School Bus. After I contacted the owner, he acknowledged that campers "should not be watching videos" and said the counselors had been reminded. Despite that assurance, the videos continued throughout the rest of the week. I also had significant concerns about supervision. The environment often felt chaotic and understaffed. At drop-off, I observed approximately 60 children gathered in one room with only two counselors visible. I asked the owner several specific questions about camper-to-staff ratios and the number of counselors assigned to my child's group, but those questions were never answered. There were other things that surprised us as well. The children ate lunch sitting on the floor, and from what I observed, they were not directed to wash their hands before eating. The camp also handed out Jolly Ranchers and several other sugary snacks during the week. Hard candy seemed like an odd choice for a camp serving young children, and the amount of candy and sugary treats was unexpected. Finally, this is one of the more expensive camps we've enrolled our child in, so we expected a higher level of organization, supervision, and programming. Unfortunately, the experience simply didn't justify the premium price. Overall, the experience did not match the expectations set by the camp's marketing materials or sample daily schedule. If you're looking for a well-organized, hands-on STEM camp with strong supervision and minimal screen time, I would look elsewhere.

While the mission is truly incredible, our experience as volunteers didn't reflect that. We often felt unclear on expectations, received little guidance on working with the horses, and experienced inconsistent communication. At times, interactions felt distant, which made it hard to feel fully welcomed. Our final visit to the garden club--where we were initially told it was "full" without prior notice--ultimately solidified that this wasn't the right fit for us, though we appreciated Erin stepping in to let us help. That said, Monica and Dylan were wonderful and very supportive. I genuinely believe in the mission and hope the volunteer experience continues to improve with more structure and communication.

My daughter loves it & has for years. Love the horseback program. Truly greatest place to spend the summer. Every counselor was my daughters favorite & still impact her life. Great for children 4-15 & at 16 can get a job. Met several counselors who were former campers. Nice to know they place such value on this program. Great to know their is a camp with so much to offer with huge legacy of YMCA. They also have a soccer program & other sports programs that many say is great just did not interest my daughter.

The location is great, however this review pertains to their youth soccer program. My 8 year old…read moreson just finished his 2nd soccer season with them. The first was great. The coach was good with the kids, and everything seemed to run as smoothly as it could. Unfortunately, this second season has left me greatly disappointed. I wasn't as happy with it in general as I was last year, but that is fine. I was still planning on signing him up again next season. Recent events have made me change my mind though. At the end of October, my son took a direct hit from a soccerball to the face during practice. After walking it off, he seemed okay and continued on with the practice. The next day, we get a call from the school nurse. She tells us that he has a headache and he is disoriented. We pick him up from school and take him to the doctor, where we discover that he has a concussion. The doctor says that he needs to refrain from soccer until the follow up visit the next week. I don't hold COY responsible for any of this. Things like this happen in sports all the time. We knew that when we signed our son up. We emailed the coach to let him know about our son received a concussion at practice and of the doctors orders. We told him that we would not be at practice that Friday or the following Monday, nor the game that Saturday. We did not receive a response. This bothered me, but I let it slide. I still received emails from the coach addressed to the team regarding practices and games, but nothing about my son. We took our son to the follow up visit a week later, and the doctor said that he was better, but still recovering and that he would have to sit out the rest of the season. Again, I emailed the coach to update him on the situation. This time I asked him to let us know how he would like us to finish out the season. Again, I did not receive a response. The last game of the season was last weekend. We still haven't heard from any of the coaches. There were three of them, and none of them could be bothered to make a phone call or send an email. Earlier this week, we sent an email to the director of the youth soccer program. We still have not received a response. COY is not responsible for my son getting injured, but I am holding them fully responsible for the lack of communication of their staff. I suppose that the COY youth soccer program is decent enough, just don't expect them to care if your child gets injured on their property while participating in their program. If that matters to you, you might want to find something else for your child to do.

Had a great time with my 6 and 9 year old kids last week during "dad camp". The Fulton library has…read morea free pass you can check out for up to 4 people which is great but it is otherwise affordable. I would budget at least 2 hours here or as many as 3 if your kids are going to interact with the butterflies and the turtles and do the scavenger hunt as mine did. The indoor exhibit is small but charming and there are a few native species around. The downstairs education center also does a scavenger hunt every month which is really cool. They've done an amazing job of "gamifying" nature/science learning with their points based rewards system and natural objects exchange. We learned a lot about butterflies and caterpillars on our quest. The points thing goes a long way to motivating little ones that may be more skeptical about "learning" experiences and museums. But if you have kids who are more active and will walk, the variety of local trails contained within the nature center is quite nice. I would recommend coming here for adults without kids too for this reason. I heard there were little fairy houses somewhere too here but. I didn't see them. We saw the beaver, a variety of different birds including hawks and owls, and tons of other local animals. It was cool to see how intentional the design was of the outdoor sections and the map they give you at the gift shop/ticket counter is helpful. I also like how they have lots of play areas built in outside for kids to explore in a less structured way. They also have some nice picnic spots. Staff were friendly and helpful. "Feeding" (with the little sugar sticks) the butterflies was fantastic. Even on a hot summer day, I'm super glad we came and if it wasn't so far from where I lived I would attend more regularly/become a member.

If you are looking for a facility that will nurture and uplift your budding young gymnasts, I would…read morestay from away from this establishment. Their instructor (Cassie) doesn't have the basic common knowledge on how to communicate with toddlers/young kids. The owner (Jason) has made it crystal clear that issues within his gym are not high on his priority list. He will soon find that customer relations are what keep a business afloat. On Wednesday October 11th, my 3 (almost 4) year old had her first class, she was beyond excited. The week prior was a trial class to see if this sport would be something she was interested in. Once the class let out, she came out to get her shoes and her instructor came out to give her some feedback. This instructor stooped down to my daughter's level and mimicked/mocked her stutter when she gets nervous or overly excited. A slight hiccup that has presented itself about 2 months ago. The look on my daughter's face was a that of shame and embarrassment. I immediately turned my back on the instructor and left. My daughter now feels like her instructor made fun of her. Tried calling the facility three times that night, no answer. Called the next day and finally got through. Laura, who works in the administrative office, was the only person i had the chance to speak to. I'm sure meant well and unfortunately my wrath was unleashed on her but with that being said, nothing has been done to rectify this. Laura even mentioned "maybe Cassie (the instructor) was having a bad day." Excuse me, but that should have no bearing on how well she performs her job. She also mentioned that these instructors don't have children and don't have experience like parents. I was floored by this statement. Why on earth has this gym hired inept instructors. I have been far more gracious than I needed to be. Jason has had two days to reach out about this incident and there has been zero contact. No offer of the $100 fee being refunded, no mention of any disciplinary actions or apologies. Though I have no desire to return to this gym, I hope Jason can learn from this experience so this doesn't happen to another little girl.

There's no email communication whether what kids need to bring or plans for the day prior of the camp week. It's ok I'll figure out. Get there on our first day , first time ever. No hi , no smile, no instructions, no telling of where to go. It's ok- I'll figure it out again. Drop them off inside the gym area. It was free for all. No one give any instructions to those kids nothing. I hang around for a while and gave up to go back to work. I did notice no sight of a grown adult. That's ok - I should see some when I came back . Got a phone call ...my kids doesn't have lunch (for half day Camp) I said there no telling whether I need to bring lunch. I only got them snack and water assuming it's half a day. Again no further instructions, no apologies for poor communication. Second day still see no soul of a true adult supervise this place. Zero. It's like this place run by a mad mad angry high school girls who's doesn't want to be there to work. Still no hi , no bye , no smile, no how are you, hi kids , nothing. Got a phone call- my 5y/o son fall in to ball pit and hurt his ankle. Again no sign of an adult supervisor as any other gymnastics place should have the person who can determine the seriousness of injury. No the girl who gave me a call no nothing , except he hurts and crying. I can't tell whether he need an immediate emergency care or just ice , nothing. I came to get him as soon as I can just to be told by my 10y/o daughter who Also at the same camp that one of the young staff was being mean to my 5y/o son who his ankle obviously in pain. She force him to get up without helping him and rush him to get out of the pit so other kids can jump in. Again no sign of a full grown adults. No sorry he hurts himself and hope he feel better. Nothing. Base from my only two days experience and traumatized they gave my kids. I won't be back and won't recommend this pace to anyone. Oh and this place is filthy dirty. I walked in just to be freed by a wet little shorts sitting in the middle of the hall way by the front door. The chairs and the computer area, cubby areas were filthy.
