Green Acres Day Camp

amazing camp, I’ve attended for the past 2 years but unfortunately won’t be able to this year. Had fun with the councillors and activities and made so many new friends. :)

My class had a fun filled day at Green Acres Day Camp. It was well organized for our group of 60 students. They kept us moving from station to station with activities and games and there was never a dull moment. The counselors were engaging and the farm was beautiful!

Unfortunately, our family did not have a pleasant experience at Green Acre Horse Riding Camp last summer. Although we initially registered our child for two weeks of riding camp, we quickly realized that this was not the right fit for our daughter. After the very first day of camp, our daughter came home in tears, begging us not to send her back. We immediately contacted the manager to request a withdrawal from the program.We were extremely disappointed with the lack of communication from the camp's staff. We tried repeatedly to contact them via email and phone, but they never acknowledged our concerns or responded to our messages. Additionally, the drop-off and pick-up process was very strict - we were not allowed to get out of our car, and I was not permitted to see any of the facilities or speak with any of the counselors.Our frustration grew over the course of five days, as we were constantly passed around from one staff member to another without anyone taking responsibility for our situation. By the beginning of the second week, we were told that it was too late to receive any sort of refund or compensation.Our daughter's experience at the camp was extremely negative for a variety of reasons, and we were very disappointed with the way that the office handled our concerns. This was one of the more expensive camps that we had considered, and we had hoped that our daughter would have a fun and memorable time there. Unfortunately, this was not the case, and we feel that our money was wasted. We cannot recommend Green Acre Horse Riding Camp to anyone, and we wish that we had never registered our daughter for this program.

Terrible Experience! This was a school trip for my classroom, we brought all our kindergarten classes. NEVER. EVER. AGAIN.The educators were rude, obnoxious and rushing through the whole day. Nothing was planned out properly, very disorganized. They were rushing 4-5 year olds from station to station yelling hurry up you're going to miss this if you don't move faster"The activities were boring

I was a Green Acres camper for many years and am super excited to be able to send my son there. The memories and friendships I made there have stuck with me and I know he is going to have the same experiences!

My 9yo son has been going for the past three years and absolutely loves Green Acres. This year our 4yo daughter started and also had the time of her life. Camp administration is super organized and on top of everything and the facilities, staff and programs are great. With all the stress of Covid and after remote learning for so many months, camp really saved us this year. Thank you for a wonderful summer!!

Not a good experience. My students were not engaged and were left disappointed. Our group leader was rude and made inappropriate comments. Workers SHOULD be trained to deal with young learners, as well as students with different needs and abilities. I will not be going back in the future.

Visited for a school field trip. The activities were repetitive and not engaging for children aged 4-6 years old. Some of the staff were rude and not inclusive to all of the children. The site did have a nice basketball court and easy access to public washrooms.

I went to green acres as a kid and loved it. I was looking forward to giving my 2 kids the same experience. My daughter will be turning 5 in October and they have a vaccine policy in place for 5 and up. The fact that they require this to go to their camp just blows my mind. I do not know of any parents who want to vaccinate their kids, let alone their 5 year olds! They will be losing a lot of kids over this policy. It should be the parents choice, not yours. Also the vaccine has been proven to be 12% effective in children with a higher chance of getting adverse side effects than protecting them so hopefully they will rethink this decision for next year.

First time attending this camp, and dissapointed by the safety measure they had for the camp. He came home injured for the last 3 consecutive days, some of them are from his peers and one of them is from the counsellor who does the activitives with the kids. He lifted my son up and dropped accidently and resulted the wound shown in the picture. Simply put, children's safety always comes the first, and I am certainly not happy to see my son back home with wounds shown in picture. I know accident happens, but would you send to the camp if you knew it is possible that your child may get hurt even worse? They didnt contact us at the time it happened, and we saw how bad the wounds were only after we picked him up and took off the bandages at home.Incident happened Friday, July 15th, 2022
