"I just wanted to tell you again what a wonderful time Quincy had at the Explorers' Club this summer. He is much more self-confident at the park, and he loves to explore his surroundings more. He spoke so highly of his counselors and his adventures, and he's told us he'd like us to take him to the playground in Mothers' Meadow so that he can show us the way to "Stone Lake." We're already looking forward to next year!"
