This road Scholar program at the Ozarks was terrific. It is a great experience for someone to try. I got to experience many things I never did as a child. You won't be disappointed. Came home tired, but a good kind of tired. So many fun, new things to try. Horseback riding, sailing, crafts, wine tours, seeing a mine. Always kept busy, but you could relax if wanted to. I'd go again!!
Sign up for this program. You will not be disappointed.
Camp Road Scholar is like being a kid again. We went to a cave, went on a hay ride and did crafts. The whole week was a blast.
I’m returning home after my first Road Scholar trip. They get an “A”.
