What do you like about your Shawnee Mission School District - Day Camp experience?

Conveniently located in the same pre-K school where my child attended and perfect for after school program. The teachers are great and taught my child a lot- from making art to improving on her writing skills with lots of learned singing too!

What do you like about your Blue Valley School District - Day Camp experience?

This is our 3rd year doing YMCA camp and we love it! The team does such a great job of curating events and activities for the kids. My son has made great friends at summer camp from other schools that he wouldn't have met during the regular school year.
As a parent, I really like the fact that there are male counselors. My son has expressed interest in being a YMCA counselor "when he grows up". :) The fact that he feels represented in a traditional female-dominated field is wonderful!
Thank you all for your dedication and support.

What do you like about your Lee's Summit School District - Day Camp experience?

The day camp we first attended which was Highland Park was terrible!!! We moved to Unity Village Camp and it’s been amazing. Those teachers are kind, understanding, and compassionate. They greet families when they arrive and when they leave. Ms. Kim and Ms. Treva are so great, I can’t say enough kind things about them. Their staff is well trained and Ms. Kim expects the best from then and it shows because they are the best. We will definitely be attending Unity next year too. The program activities are much different than the others and promote creativity, exploration, and independence. My kids have really grown from this program. So happy to have been a part of this particular camp!!! We will definitely be back next year.

What do you like about your Spring Hill School District - Day Camp experience?

The structure and field trips are a lot of fun. Knowing that my girl will be cheerfully meeting by a staff meeting each day and seeing her excited to go play with her freinds at y-camp is great. Wish they went to the pool every week, but was glad they still had other things on the weeks they didn't go to pool.

What do you like about your Blue Valley School District - Day Camp experience?

As a parent, I like that it offers a consistent, full-day schedule that lasts almost the entire summer (great for working parents), includes both indoor and outdoor activities and fun field trips, and that the staff regularly interact with the children. My son loves Kona Ice days, field trips, swimming days, different fun activities and games (he loved the blue foam party and a DNA STEM lesson in particular this summer), and playing with new friends.

The staff at Ray Marsh did an incredible job programming fun, engaging, and educational activities for my daughter! I will absolutely be enrolling her next summer! My only regret was not getting her enrolled sooner so she could have enjoyed the full term.
