[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I picked up DD from Interlochen after a month on Saturday. She adjusted beautifully and had a wonderful time. She enjoyed the Junior Strings more than Junior Piano because strings was so much more social. They rehearsed three hours a day, had a strings workshop for another hour, and do two electives. She had a good connection with the girls in her cabin and her counselors were very kind while she was struggling the first week. I was absolutely blown away by their performance after two weeks of rehearsals. DD said the teaching staff was extremely competent and had a perfect blend of rigor and silliness. She played in the Junior Honors Recital and her cabin mates came and cheered her loudly. She is planning to go back next year for sure. The cafeteria managed her food allergies very well, aside from serving her an unsafe food one time. Luckily, she recognized it and talked to someone else and they changed it out. The staff was responsive and organized. The camp was expensive, but I felt well worth the cost.

I'm happy to answer any questions![/quote]

Reviving this in case the OP sees it (or anyone else wants to chime in). 
OP, I’m happy your DD had such a good experience! That’s wonderful! Did she go back last year? My DD will be going this summer, and I wonder if you (or your daughter) have any tips for how to adjust, how to best enjoy the camp, etc.?  It’ll be DD’s first time at sleepaway camp, and she’ll also be one of the youngest in her group (intermediate), which is making me a little nervous. Thanks![/quote]
