This program was very organized and well run. The one item they could NOT control was the weather. The temperature was in the 90's and although the dorms & meeting rooms had A/C, we were out in the sun most of the time. The facility is not on the beach and we spent only one hour swimming. The lectures were too academic for the age group but the field trips were a good balance. I suspect they used materials from other programs.
The food was poor - typical cafeteria, but the trip to The Creamery for ice cream was very welcome! The interns were very attentive and gave the grandparents a break. The instructors were excellent and really related to the children. I would recommend this program for a group above 11 years.
Although it was not part of the program - we did see the ponies!

This Coastal Ecology program was a great one for all the participants in this inter-generational experience. The teen age Interns were a welcome addition to the program, especially to us grandparents. Splitting the boys and girls was a great way for each group to bond! Jonah and Emma, our leaders, both did a fantastic job. The sleeping accommodations in Red Knot Residence hall were more than adequate, as were the meals in the Dining Hall. The only negative was taking the group out to dinner on Thursday evening. The service and meal were poor.
