Rocky Mountain Day Camp

Our kids had a phenomenal experience at this camp. They were all-in on the spirit awards, the variety of games, and the enthusiasm of the counselors. We had an incident with some minor bullying to which the owner was immediately receptive; they looped in the counselors and kept a watchful eye to make sure the situation stopped immediately. Our kids are already requesting we do a full three-week session next year. Some major parental pros to consider: three-week sessions make planning your life incredibly easy, the cost is less than other local camps (great sibling and early discounts), and exposure to a ton of different activities and games.

I have taken my kids to a lot of camps over the years and this is by far the lowest quality camp I have ever seen. I feel sick to my stomach leaving my kid there every day. When I drop my kids off, there is nobody to greet them or me. It feels super scared and sad. I barely know where to go except for some of the kids tell me that some of the groups have been combined - but there is no counselor to talk to me. All of the kids are sitting around a bin with nobody engaging in them, talking to them, or playing with them. The counselors are in a group socializing amongst themselves. When I went to go find a counselor for the group, I was treated as though I was interrupting social hour. I also can't find a single adult on the entire campus - I think the oldest person on site (that I could find) was barely older than 18. I also feel like my kids are not safe here at all - I could have walked out today with any child and nobody would have noticed. I also really don't like the fact that the counselors appear as though they don't care about these kids. It very much feels that this is just a summer job to fill their time and hang out with their friends.

RMDC is such a great experience for kids of all ages. We have sent our boys for years and they always love their time with friends and the counselors. This organization really loves what they do and it shows. In addition, from a parent perspective they are organized, accommodating, and always happy! We had a last minute issue with a different camp this week and Tyler and his crew offered to have my boys jump in mid-week and attend for another few weeks. My boys were thrilled and they made it so easy. We will be long term supporters of RMDC. Thank you for all that you do.

Great summer camp, outstanding positive energy. All counselors are top notch and well coached to support the kids in every way possible. We initially held off trying this camp for our first 4 years of camp due to the cost being above average but now we regret those missed years. We’ve done about 20 different camps n Denver Boulder and this is the favorite because it’s so well run.

This is more than a camp, this is a culture of positivity and support. One more than one occasion I have arrived a few minutes early to pick up my daughter, and observe the end of day routine. I will also tell you that I found myself watching with a tear in my eye. Highly recommended!
