Swim Lessons in Poughkeepsie, NY

Here's what our Families are Saying!

Parent of 4th grade and 2nd grade children, 2nd Summer at Hillcroft

This is our second summer. Our son ( age 9), the shy one, was hesitant at the beginning of this year. Having him with “old” friends and placing him with an amazing counselor again gave him the continuity and familiarity he needed. He LOVES camp and requested to be back again NEXT summer too. Our daughter ( age 7) loves camp so much she is already making plans to be a CIT, then counselor. Thanks for such a wonderful setting!
