I registered my son in one of the summer Multi Sport Day Camps, one week for $365, included lunch. The program guide indicated skating as one of the activities, no mention that you have to own your own skates. I thought this was a great camp, he would get to try a variety of activities in a safe environment. The Friday before the start of the camp, I receive a standard email from the camp instructor, guess what, turns out if you don't own skates, you cannot skate and would have to do another activity. Okay, I wasn't happy but I figured the kids would get to swim, since they have a pool but no, the alternate activity was coloring, 2 hours sitting in a cold rink colouring! I sent an an email with my concerns, no response or acknowledgement.
I was not impressed, and I won't be registering at NSWC again, no follow up to my email, and my son didn't have a great time. It's not worth the $$$, and the program guide is misleading. There are better choices and options available on the North Shore.

****Thank you Kim Hirji for the immediate follow up and call with regards to this posting. I appreciated your explanation and that you plan to make your brochure clearer moving forward. Your call made all the difference and we will indeed try NSWC again for further camps**** Thanks!
