Leopold Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Anyone can recommend me a summer camp which a strong water ski program for my 11 years old daughter? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chef23 Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 For young kids it is hard to beat Coble's Ski School in North Carolina. April is great with kids and they have a bunch of college aged counsellors that are very good as well. I have been sending my kids for several years and they love it. I wouldn't hesitate to send the kids alone as they keep a close eye o everyone and have a strict set of rules for the kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leopold Posted April 10, 2012 Author Share Posted April 10, 2012 Thanks Mark. The idea is to send her alone from Europe, to lern English. I'll check Coble's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members lhoover Posted April 10, 2012 Members Share Posted April 10, 2012 Leopold, be sure to check out Bennetts in Baton Rouge, LA. Outstanding camp, school, skiing, and personnel make it a repeat favorite for tons of kids and adults through the years. Hard to beat the attention from one of the nicest families you will ever meet, and have done so much great work for our sport, the Bennetts. Jay, Ann, and Danyell are quality folks, so put them on your list. Go to both Cobles and Bennetts, if possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chef23 Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Leopold going to both is a great idea. When we were there last year there was a boy there from France doing what you are planning to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Killer Posted April 10, 2012 Baller Share Posted April 10, 2012 http://www.onondagacamp.com/ Over the years have had many international campers, from France, Germany, Switzerland, Japan, Mexico, and just about everywhere in between. 2 boats/lakes to ski on and a slalom course. Not tourament level coaching, but an amazing all around camp in the beautiful Canadian Shield cottage country region of Ontario. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PBD Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 @horton, Do you know happened to Thompson's up in Oildale. My kids loved that place but it got sold about the time they were done with that stage of their lives. Do they still have the summer camp up there?

Administrators Horton Posted April 13, 2012 Administrators Share Posted April 13, 2012 I live so close to Thompsons. It kills me but I do not think anyone skis there anymore. No camp at all I gues.

dave_n Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 @Leopold . I'd have to agree with lhoover about Bennetts Ski School, La. I've been going there since 2007. Great place with excellent coaching. I know that Jay and Anne makes sure that the youngsters are very well looked after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leopold Posted April 16, 2012 Author Share Posted April 16, 2012 Well, I sent an email to Coble's requesting information. No answer after one week. My wife said it's her turn so she is checking a YMCA camp with little waterskiing... Thank you for your answers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
