The large aerial zipline was closed, the taller walk the plank was closed and the toxic meltdown also closed . The attendant at the walk the plank worker mumbled something about "a piece missing from the taller one" after saying it was open and then checking. If you're understaffed wouldn't it make more sense to cycle the zipline crew to the closed ones so the paying customers can get what they paid for and go on everything? Everyone just seemed clueless about things being closed. That being said, the open stuff was fun.

I'm here to tell you please do not send your child to MAGIC MEMORIES daycare in Chester springs…read more They are unprofessional, rude and have no consideration of your feelings nor family. I had my daughter go into the fireflies class at 3 months old with Miss.Stacey. I went out of my way to be kind and provide donuts and coffee for the infant room and admin of my daughters first week and I didn't even get a thank you. I was told my daughter needed a bottle, sleep sack, extra clothes, formula and diapers. My daughter was not even there for a month and the teacher repeatedly lied to my face and on my family. The first time I noticed she lied I tried my best to ignore it but it stuck in my mind to tread lightly and boy I should've known then. One day picking up my daughter from school Miss.Stacey told me there was an audit and my daughters bottle was sited, that she now needed bottles for every number of times she ate. The director told me there was no audit. The teacher told the director she never told me that. I was shocked and pissed. Why would I make that up? The second lie...last Thursday I had my mother, my daughters grandmother come into the center and see how to pick her up for Friday when I had a work meeting. My mom complimented the center for how nice it was, the babies in the classroom for how cute they were and I showed her the ropes of the routine. That night I was told by the director that " a source" which we now know was the teacher that my mom looked at the baby and said wow, that baby is so ugly! Needless to say I was beyond pissed and couldn't believe this teacher made up once again another lie and this is now defamation of character. A complete false statement made for no reason at all. I was floored, my mom was so hurt and crying. The next day I had a meeting with the director and she finally told me who said it after realizing I may pull my child due to all these issues. We set up a meeting with the teacher for this past Monday morning. My mom, my fiance, myself, my son and daughter went into this meeting with the director, assistant director, and teacher to get to the bottom of this. Miss.Stacey stood there and continued her lies, said in front of us all that this iz what my mom said and she never told me about an audit. I couldn't believe it! I told her she was a compulsive liar and needs help. She left the meeting and slammed the door. The director and assistant director sat there and didn't say a word. We ran the meeting and fetched for what was going to happen next. We never got an apology, sympathy absolutely nothing! Who in the world would believe a grandmother, a 52 year old women went into a daycare and called babies ugly! I'm baffled: the director said she would reach out to the vice president and regional manager and let us know next steps. She never contacted us back, I had to call her again. When I did talk with her she said because they don't know the true story or who's lying they wouldn't accommodate us, move the teacher to another class etc. How are we suppose to send our baby to this center knowing that this teacher is a compulsive liar and what else is she lying about? Is my daughter even getting taken care of properly? Is she eating her bottles, changing her when needed? You can't trust a liar. I asked the director for the regional managers contact information and I was told she couldn't provide me with the number. I found the email and contacted myself. Within an hour I received a phone call and he had no idea about this situation, she never called him! He was not happy with how this was handled and now is going investigate this situation, the center, Miss.Stacey and directors Miss.Amber and Miss.Veronica. Three days later I recieved a generic email from the regional manger with no explanation, apologies and or justice. I did try calling to get clarification of what transpired and I was sent right to voicemail! I wasn't even worth a phone call that I was promised. I'm beyond disgusted with this facility and how it is ran. Even the higher ups didn't help us at all. I repeat DO NOT send your child to this center and especially near Miss.Stacey!

So disappointed in the immature behavior of the staff this week. I was called a "Hovering Mother"…read moreand my child heard these words at camp as well. It hurt her feelings and mine too. So sad that name calling comes from a so called "Christian Camp". Those who know me personally would describe me as a sometimes absentee mother, but hovering would never be part of the description - you know I'm the one who doesn't check homework or monitor media real well. We live 5 minutes down the road from camp and we experienced our first heat wave of the summer. My daughter has asthma and was in a cabin with no air conditioning and very poor ventilation. I contemplated brining her a fan, but then decided, "nah she'll be fine." I called the next day (1 time) to check on her as she was on the top bunk and it didn't cool down to mid 85 degrees until 3am. Again, I called ONE time. I also had to pick her up for an Orthodontist appointment mid-week b/c we booked camp last minute (my husband lost his job and we weren't sure we could afford it) ...I couldn't reschedule the appointment (she wouldn't get in for another 6 weeks). Living only 5 minutes away this seemed like a reasonable solution. Apparently I inconvenienced someone by this hovering behavior (obviously they've never tried scheduling doctors appointments around a busy tweens schedule especially when the doctor is only in the office twice a month). I also mentioned to the counselor that in lieu of a care package, since we live local, I could drop off some water ice for the whole cabin to enjoy. What a nice and generous gesture that was again misconstrued as hovering. I was told the next day they would be away from camp. I later found out that was a lie and the kids told me they just didn't want the other cabins to be upset. Sure I get it, just say the truth (I probably would have hovered to bring enough for all of Hill Top). I didn't question the rejection, no big deal. So when my daughter was at her appointment she told me she ran out of undergarments (oops), she packed her own luggage (you know all hovering parents DON"T check their child's luggage to make sure they have everything). She wanted me to bring her some undergarments, I said I would drop some off that night. Well I forgot (not really I just din't feel like driving over again), because you know I'm a hovering parent. I dropped off the underclothes the next day. Sorry my bad, guess I was hovering again (I drive by the camp on the way to store almost everyday). You people have NO CLUE. Shame on you for bashing a parent for loving their kid. I'm telling all the locals to find a better place. You won't have to hear the sound of my propellors anymore.
