Testimonials from Parents
They learn about marine ecology in an environment that can’t be beat— well-trained, environmental educators and they are within proximity to various ecosystems.
My two boys have attended this camp for the second year and are already excited for what’s in store for next year! Hands on, engaging and memorable learning activities galore! This camp is organized, well run and a wonderful learning experience!
Love the opportunity for my daughter to learn about the ecosystems near Chincoteague.
We will definitely be back next year. My daughter learned a tremendous amount and is using it in casual conversation which is so awesome to learn from her as well. The educators all seemed kind and well versed.
This was my son's third camp; it's an excellent life enhancing learning experience.
Great people doing great work. Please accept our gratitude and thanks.
This was his second time. By the end of the week he was asking if he could go next year!
