What parents say
“Good ratios. Good camp.”
“fire power skating camp”
“Tom was fantastic to deal with and my boy loved his camp. Power skating instruction is fantastic as well. Knowledgeable and engaging 5-7 year old kids at the same time. Would recommend”
“My son attended one of his summer camps. The registration fee I paid for this camp was to include 17.5 hrs of training- 12.5 one ice, 5 off ice. When camp started, the off ice training wasn’t going to be included. I asked to be refunded the amount for the off ice portion and was told I would get a $15 credit towards registration for one of his future camps (roughly 3% of registration fee). Not impressed! Doesn’t provide almost 30% of the instruction that was included in the registration fee and thinks a 3% credit is suitable reimbursement.<br><br>As for the on-ice portion of the camp…it was ok. The instructors did the standard skating, passing, shooting drills that good coaches would run at a team practice. However, the instructors didn’t interact with the kids much. They would demonstrate a drill and expect the kids to do it on their own. They didn’t pay attention to whether a kid was doing a drill correctly or not.<br><br>If the owner provided a decent refund for the dry-land portion that wasn’t provided, I would give the camp a rating of 3.5 stars.”
