[quote=Anonymous]My kids spent multiple weeks at Sandy Spring so I thought I’d follow up on some of the other Sandy Spring posts by others. I think the counselor makes a big difference and it’s hard to know if you will get a good one. One child had a great summer last year and was excited to go back to the same cabin and so many of the same workshops and complained much more this year. Lots of changes to the schedule, times they weren’t at the right place at the right time or even ending up at a workshop at the wrong time so no teacher was waiting. It was disappointing. She wants to go back but I’m going to mix in other camps moreso next year. My junior camper seemed to have a nice and organized counselor but they don’t get to pick their workshops at that age and just do a sampler- but weirdly they don’t change the sampler week to week so they were stuck doing like some outdoor living thing (which my kid hated) once a week every week. And they never tried several workshops that were my older child’s favorite (but other cabins did). I know my kids went more weeks than some other kids but there were several others they knew from last year and from school who also did many weeks so I thought it was weird they didn’t try to make it more interesting. Several theme weeks had really fun activities (my kids love Olympic week and Maryland week) but others seemed more phoned in.

TLDR- good but not good for most of the summer. Will do maybe 3-4 weeks next summer.[/quote]
