Many issues - this location lost three good teachers in the course of a year. A consequence of this…read moreis that children get passed around to very inexperienced teachers or the short tempered Director who likes to put hands on children and drag them while yelling at them for "ignoring" instead of seeing that the child has shut down. They discriminate against perceived disabilities. They lack basic understanding of cause and effect. Children are a product of their environment. - If you want no dysregulated children, maybe staff more educated/trained teachers and provide a calm, consistent environment - children would behave accordingly. The handbook talks about cameras for the safety of the children - what they don't tell you and what is not in the handbook is that parents are not allowed to view the video to view circumstances leading up to events. They purposely mislead parents, they interrogate/coerce information from 3 year olds without parents present. I suggest going anywhere else but daycares operated/owned by Learning Care Group. I thought it might just be this location and Director level. It is not. The response or lack of response is indicative of a much larger (not even regional) liability/risk governance issue at corporate level. They do not care about children.

Scouting is in my blood- I love nature, kids almost always love me & I am not afraid to get dirty!…read moreI am a new volunteer to this council and this was my first time at one of our local camps, located in Orange Park, this camp had to be here long before any of the neighborhoods! Great waterfront access & there is a pool. A climbing tower! I didn't explore too much- there was a leader training I was popping in to show my support for a friend who was teaching the course. She was set up in campsite 8 and unfortunately the campsites need some serious maintenance- poison ivy is overgrown in most of the sites! Fire pits have not been raked and cleaned. In my old council, our Order of the Arrow helped the Camp Rangers every year to clean up and do service around the camps. I have no idea if that is done here, but it needs some tlc. I can't wait to see more of this camp!

Smitty's Camp ROCKS! Daily my 7 year old would excitedly regale me of her day and all of the games…read moreor camp songs she learned. She even taught a few of those games to her parents! I particularly loved the "Bazooka Joe Bubble Gum" song she'd perform and sing. Smitty's is an "old school" summer camp. The kids get to swim TWICE a day! There's a nice pool as well as HUGE inflatable water slides! I typically sent my daughter in shorts, a bathing suit, and a long sleeve rash guard that would double as sun protection since they are outside ALL DAY! They also get to kayak, canoe, and go fishing! I love that even the little ones build confidence in learning all these new skills. My impatient daughter has *yet* to catch a fish but is wistful for that day to come. Every week is a new theme and they do games and crafts to compliment the weeks theme. My daughters favorite was Holiday Hullabaloo. "Monday is Christmas, Tuesday is Valentine's Day, Wednesday is Easter, and Thursday is HALLOWEEN!" My daughter joyfully informed me. The Minute-To-Win-It theme was also a hit. In between games there is also a playground and also a covered patio area where they can do crafts or read books. I have seen the older kids playing kickball on the baseball field in the mornings too. On rainy days they go inside and watch movies. Smitty's has such a FUN Summer Camp culture! I wish I had been able to attend something like this when I was younger myself. The main improvement Smittys needs is their front-of-house administration. Getting any resolution over the phone has been very difficult for me be it an emailed receipt or even a confirmation if could make a reservation for camp. You really have to go IN PERSON to get anything done unfortunately. TIPS: - Wednesday is Ice cream truck day so pack your little one some cash if they want some! - There is no on site food preparation for lunch BUT there is a water refill station as well as a Camp Store for snacks. - My daughter would carry a pound of sand home in her shoes so we had a rule that she would leave the shoes OUTSIDE! - Pack extra sunscreen for your child to apply after swimming or when needed. - They upload photos at the end of the week of all the fun the kids had to both their website and Facebook!

She loves the music they play and dances to the beat. After a warm up the coaches set up different areas or obstacles and my baby loves it. We let her be dependent and she controls where she goes and when. She's learned to trust the coaches and they offer feedback on what they accomplish at their areas. The coaches love what they do and are involved in every aspect. They dance around, help the kids get motivated and show them how to have a good time!

I took my 6 year old granddaughter, Charlotte, to Southern Pines for their Foundational Horse…read moreLesson a week ago and she is still talking about it. Jen Daly was so good with her, teaching her all the fundamentals from the tact room, to grooming the horse, and riding the horse. Too often parents just take their kids to "ride a horse" without learning to appreciate how much goes into taking care of a horse. Charlotte learned all those things in a couple of hours, she even mucked the stall and enjoyed it. Jen had her riding Lola (a wonderfully gentle horse) within a matter of minutes and steering the horse on her own. I only wish Charlotte lived here year round so I could enroll her in ongoing lessons at Southern Pines. A very clean, well managed facility where it's clear to see how much they love and care for the horses, the property and their clients.
