Nature Trekkers Summer Camp - Parents' Comments

Below are comments from previous parents' Camp survey:

"Best camp we've been to!"

 

"I am especially impressed with the professionalism and high quality of materials."

 

"Each day my son would talk about what happened that morning - all the way home in the car - a 45 min. ride! And he would repeat it at dinner so my husband could hear it. He told us all kinds of facts as well as tales of the day."

 

"It was incredible. Our child loved every minute and she talked about it every day."

 

"He really enjoyed showing me all the things he 'created'. There were so many great 'hands on' things he got to make. He also enjoyed sharing miscellaneous 'facts' about things he'd learned."

 

"Content from the camp my child has shared: why turtles shouldn't be kept as pets, how a crayfish burrows in the mud, how snapping turtles look, where snakes hang out, and info. about trap door spiders"

 

"Both girls want to come back next year!"

 

"His favorite part of camp was walking in the woods, the meadow and dissecting a fish."

 

"Like so many Houston families the summer time is both a relief and a chore; we are constantly looking for interesting, thought-provoking activities for children. I want to congratulate you on your accomplishment in the summer camp. The other afternoon I heard three little boys discussing their day at the Arboretum - arguing over who exactly saw the coral snake first and so on - with the Game Boys well out of sight."
