”The summer program was a huge success! I am not even sure where to start...my daughter had the time of her life! Before this week, she was not a “nature girl” she was so proud to tell me all about their hike to the top of the big mountain. Before this week with Chloe, she hated swimming in lakes, now she loves it! She was so excited to tell me all about their days, from breakfast to lights out! I had so much fun reading the blog every night. My mother was reading the blog as well and decided that she wants to attend as well! You guys did so many creative activities! My daughter came back more mature and a foot taller! After reading the blog each night, I was exhausted! You managed to pack so much into each day. She had so fun fun with Chloë and her helpers. So, on our end...it was a HUGE success!!! We are already looking forward to next year!”
