School Break Sports Camps

Pros: Overall a good value for the money, my 6 year old enjoyed all 3 days and the other kids/parents we spoke to seemed to enjoy it as well. The 2 young ladies that were assigned to my child’s group (the younger kids) were kind & attentive. There was plenty of parking at the facility. They seemed to follow COVID protocols and also made check-in/out easy. Cons: My child would have appreciated a wider variety of games be played each day instead of the same ones all 3 days. Considering how big this indoor space is, the possibilities are endless. A little creativity goes along way. Staggering the kids’ bathroom break (potty & hand washing) before lunch would have been a good idea. The dirty synthetic indoor turf left the children’s clothes and hand blackened, along with anything else they touched. There were 2 individual bathrooms available to 24+ kids that lined up at basically the same time each day before lunch. I get that these are the only 2 bathrooms they have access to, but there has to be a better way. Also, the indoor turf needs to be cleaned on a regular basis. While GrowFit does not own or operate the facility utilized, they do pay to use it and is an issue that directly impacts the experience provided by them.
All that said, in the end the most important thing is my child’s happiness and safety. She was super happy to go every day and they kept her safe. Job well done!

From the kid perspective, I think this is a good camp. My son (9) had a good day. He had been reluctant to attend, but he reported back at the end of the day that he really enjoyed it and would be excited to come back. From the parent perspective, I was not happy with the organization. An email had come out the day prior giving instructions that ended up being wrong. They said that there would be complementary before care starting at 8am (camp started at 9), so I sat in line outside in the parking lot, along with at least a half dozen other parents/kids, for an hour. By 9am there was a long line of parents/kids and only one person checking them in. Similarly, the email said they would be open until 6pm when really they were closing at 4pm. I get that it was a mistake, but it really was disruptive.

I was so happy to have found GrowFit for my high energy 8 year old son. He loved it and always came home with a tired but happy smile on his face. The staff was welcoming and engaged in making sure all of the kids were feeling comfortable, safe and having a good time.

We were very happy when we went to admit our daughter for her first day in the summer camp. It's pretty huge and we were very happy to find the right sports camp for her. On her second day, my daughter got injured on her arm while jumping on the inflatables. My daughter is six year old and she told that she informed the instructor but she didn't get any medical help. When we asked for an update the next day, Instructor told us that our daughter never reached out for help. I wouldn't trust GrowFit for any of my future summer camps if they cannot take care of kids safety. Lastly, After care is really bad with just kids hanging around.
