“He [our son] was so happy to come here. It was so easy for him because he made connections with the other kids. It was the best decision we ever made.”
- Andrei
“We love the summer camp because there is no smartphones, no any devices that they can use in the living in this world right now. It’s so hard to keep the kids out of this type for this world. We really want them to feel this the world just as is not through the phone, not with the all these devices.”
– Anna
