What FLOW Participants Have to Say

"Thank you so very much for an excellent camp!  My daughter came home everyday enthusiastic telling of what she had learned/experienced in the program. We were impressed and her older brothers jealous. It was a fantastic experience and one that was appreciated by us as well ..."
"The sessions for the parents were informative and fun. My daughter enjoyed the sessions and is putting what she has learned into practice ... I think this program should be available more often and advertised throughout the state."
