My kids have been going to PGDC for 6 years and love it! The staff is so friendly; the camp director makes sure he hires the right people! The counselors, division leaders and director are so responsive to parents' needs. They typically return messages within a few hourseven during the busy camp days! The grounds are always clean and are always being updated. Each year it's a surprise when we return to camp and see what has been done in the off-season. I highly recommend this camp!
Pine Grove is absolutely the best camp experience a child can have. My 9 year old daughter loved camp last summer and can't wait to go back next year. We have attended other camps and none compare to the Pine Grove experience. There are countless activities for her to choose from and the staff is supportive and nurturing. As a parent I am impressed with the sense of values the facility instills in campers and opportunities created for the children. Truly a 5 star facility.
My kids had the best summer at Pine Grove! It was their second summer at Pine Grove and they are already asking when they get to go back! They had fun from the minute they got on the bus till the minute they got off! Pine Grove taught them so many things, from swimming and cooking to camp songs and challenging themselves on the ropes course! Everyone there is always warm and friendly and eager to have fun with the kids! Any concerns are always immediately addressed! Pine Grove is truly a gem !
I can't say enough about my children's experience at Pine Grove! This was our boy's first year at Pine Grove and it exceeded our expectations. As a parent safety is always your first concern. They had it covered from the care on the bus to their excellent nursing staff and special accommodations to meet my son's allergies.
If you ask my boys what they think of Pine Grove they get all excited telling you the fun things they would do everyday. From archery to swimming, wrestling, music, football, arts and crafts.the list goes on and on. Your kids never feel there isn't something they would like to do!
If you are considering Pine Grove this summer, do it! You won't be disappointed!
Our daughter (7) attended Pine Grove last summer for the first time, but both my husband and I couldn't be happier with the camp, staff, & director. Our daughter came home each day excited, engaged, and eager to go the next day. We were super impressed by the amount of activities and how busy the kids were, but also we saw a big improvement in her social skills and confidence. She is also not the best swimmer and her abilities to swim and learn the basics improved dramatically over the course of 8 weeks. This beat out ANY of the other local swim programs which we tried. We all can't wait to go back for all future summers to come! PG4L!
My daughter attended Pine Grove for the first time last summer. I only signed her up for the minimum number of weeks originally because I was nervous she was going to feel like an outsider given some girls in her group had attended PG for several years already. By the end of the first week, she was BEGGING me to sign her up for more! She absolutely loved her counselors and the activities that she got exposed to - mountain biking, archery and high ropes to name a few. PG gave my daughter a newfound sense of independence and confidence that we had not seen before. And it gave her the courage to try new activities. Everyone at Pine Grove was exceptionally helpful and user friendly. They make registering, orchestrating transportation, and getting answers to lots of question very easy. I can't recommend this camp enough for kids who like to be active. My daughter is counting down the days until she returns to PG!
