There was a lot of anxiety before camp started because we were concerned about how our kids would acclimate to a new environment with the new COVID-19 procedures.  Happy to say everything went smoothly!  From temperature checks to social distancing, the coaches at KING made sure everyone stayed safe, while having a great time.  It was a wonderful experience!!

Has been a GREAT experience for my son, we actually extended for an additional week.  Besides being a great camp experience on its own, it is safe and I feel so much more comfortable with him returning to school in the fall having had the experience of wearing a mask during activities and socially distancing from his peers.  He goes to bed super tired at night, wakes up energized for the next day of camp, and (added bonus for me) has been spending significantly less time on his electronic devices.  Win win all around.

For our first time experiencing KING camp was amazing!! Especially during these crazy scary times, they made me feel so comfortable and kids safe.  My daughter and Godson had a blast and came home happy everyday. Coach Tracey was so welcoming  and all the staff was always so happy and helpful. Even through the mask you can see everyone smiling.

Very very very very very very very fun!!!!!

I joined the Kids in the Game summer camp at the Riverdale location.  It was my second year at this site.  I loved it last year as well, but this year was even more special because of the pandemic.  My parents were very reluctant to send me to the camp this summer, but after speaking with Coach Tracey, they felt it was worth trying.  It turned out to be such a great experience…all the coaches were caring, energetic and made sure everyone was safe at the camp.  Coach Tracey and his team did a wonderful job of running the camp with all the safety protocols and screening procedures every single day, and there was no problem for the entire time I was there. My parents originally agreed to send me for three weeks, but I was having so much fun that I begged my mom and dad to add more weeks, so I ended up going for five weeks of regular camp, and I am going to join two more weeks of Sports and Swim camp.

After having to stay home for four months in the spring, and possibly staying home for many more months this fall and winter, being able to spend this summer at the camp with a lot of friends and friendly coaches, playing and swimming outside, was extremely important for me.  We are truly grateful that this turned out to be a very positive experience for me and my parents.

Kids in the Game gets 5 stars from me! My son attended the Riverdale location this summer, and I have to say that I am beyond impressed and grateful to them for going above and beyond with the kids – ESPECIALLY during these crazy times with pandemics and blackout causing storms! Sanitizer was given at the entrance, temps. were taken daily for both parents and kids, and the coaches did a good job encouraging the kids to keep their masks on. Coach Tracey (The camp director) did a great job making sure parents were well informed all summer, Coach Tamara was amazing with my son and always made sure to keep me posted on how he was doing, and all the other Coaches were extremely friendly and great at keeping the kids excited and motivated for the day.

Thank you K.I.N.G. ! We will see you next summer!

AMAZING Team….. Thank You Thank You Thank You. Our daughter had a great time. Will definitely send her back next year. You guys did such a wonderful job.

I know I speak for our entire office, and especially our Foundation Team, when I say that the entire

Kids in the Game team made the day yesterday. We’ve gotten so much positive feedback from our exec team

and various staff members, and that was in large part to your team and the passion you all have for

coaching, the kids, your energy, and the overall mission of the Kids in the Game Foundation.

What an incredible day for everybody. Everybody was talking about it today, sharing pictures,

stories, etc. Great stuff, great organization you guys have

…We would like to thank your organization and the VML Foundation for your very generous gifts of

equipment and your valuable time spent with our students yesterday. The equipment will help our

sports teams tremendously and the Scholarship will aid one of our 8th graders to attend one of your

summer camps.
