My husband and I stumbled upon Earthplace today while in Westport. We are so happy we did. Upon…read moredriving up you could see two distinct spaces; nature trails and main animal building. We weren't prepared for nature walks so we just viewed the trails. That is absolutely something we will come back to do. Today we decided to do the animal sanctuary. When you first go up to the building, make sure to look down and see the animal prints in the sidewalk. The price was $10 per adult (less per child) and we were happy to pay it since it went directly for the care of the animals. We started in the hall with the small critters. There is also a playroom for smaller kids. They have some centers and a huge tree in the middle of the room. There is a smaller kid section and a little nature movie theater. Very cute. We loved the critters and birds. Two in particular were VERY social. Pecans (an artistic dancing pigeon) and E.T. (a lovable turkey vulture). We spent a lot of time interacting with these two. We had some interactions with the staff and caretakers and it was pretty obvious these animals are well loved. The animals there are either surrendered or injured. We left with some items from the little shop-including art from Pecans. We will absolutely be returning. This was such a happy find!

The entrance to the building has a custom tile mural that is uniquely wonderful. You pay to view the animals are check out the dioramas, animals and exhibits inside.You can see the birds of prey which were rescued from the wild due to their injuries. You can go during feeding time. The entrance fees help to pay for the food and care of the animals. Wonderful space to get outdoors and appreciate nature. We saw a turtle, wild turkeys, chipmunks, birds and butterflies walking the trails. I will come back to enjoy this refuge and experience the postive effects of being out in nature.

My son, Peter, had his first full week of camp and it went very smoothly. All staff were very welcoming, energetic and enthusiastic. My son had a great time!

I totally trusted Coach Kyle with my son and knew that my son was in the best of hands. I am completely impressed by what the camp offers. Well done all, what a week it was!!!! Thank you so much! I will definitely be signing my son up again at Peak Performance Sports Camp! 5 stars all the way! Sincerely, Wendy Cecio

The kids were all so kind and courteous. The coaches patient and fun. Great communication with parents too. They also worked well with our sitter. The children not only played sports but played games, learned about team work and the varying ages was not an issue. My son wad the youngest in week one. He loved every day, every min and he can't wait to go back. Cost was reasonable too. Can't say that for many camps these days in this area!

She takes drowning prevention and water safety incredibly seriously for my infant daughter, as well as for all the other children in the class, including those with special needs. Despite the serious focus on safety, she manages to make every lesson genuinely fun and engaging. We love her approach and will absolutely be going back.

We have taken numerous fitness classes at the "J" and each one has exceeded our expectations. We have also sent our son (and now our daughter) to Sara Walker Nursery School. It is a phenomenal school with loving and nurturing teachers. Our son was in the Terrific Tots, 2's, 3's and 4's program. These programs fully prepared him for Kindergarten. I can't speak highly enough about the school, the teachers, the curriculum and the care he received at the school.

The staff (from counselors to instructors) is also fantastic and a group of very experienced professionals. The directors are always developing new programs and bringing in the latest activities for campers of all ages. One of the newest additions to the camp is the climbing wall and zip line. My kids could not get enough of them. My kids are also huge fans of animals and the fact that Deerkill has a pony, and a couple of friendly alpacas is a great plus. Overall, I would recommend Deerkill to anyone that would like to provide their kids with the opportunity to have summers they will never forget making life long friends along the way. Thanks Deerkill, the kids can't wait to be back again this summer!!!
