Spent 4 grand on this camp, first day was just physically demanding “icebreakers” for 2 hours, then you had to walk to target to get food, next day you wake up at 8 to go to the kitchen when you actually start cooking at 10 so you wait for another 2 hours, around 20 students with a tiny 2 stove kitchen, overall not an experience worth 4 grand, would have learned almost the same from watching a couple YouTube tutorials
campusATX was the highlight of my little sister’s summer! She loved the opportunity to cook in a Ghost Kitchen with real chefs. And she loved getting to stay in Hardin House! Go Longhorns!
I had the distinct pleasure of watching my nephew for a weeks and one of things he wanted to do was follow in his uncle's footsteps of doing culinary school. It was amazing to have such a great opportunity for this camp to be available and for him to be able to emulate what I did. I can not say enough about the organization, the members volunteering their time & passion to these children. The final presentation and tasting at the end of the week was amazing! I for sure highly recommend this to any parent, uncle/aunt, whomever to give this amazing group an opportunity. A special shout out to Lindsay for her passion to enrich the camp throughout ATX and the country.
Great experience with this camp. The staff is highly professional, attentive and responsive. They even have a “top chef” style cooking event at the end for parents! Really fostered a sense of community and enthusiasm around cookies. My daughter made great friends
This was my son’s first sleep away camp and he had such a great time! From the get go, signing up was easy & there was great communication with the staff. My son, Jerry, made a bunch of friends that he still talks to, and came home with confidence and passion in his new hobby. He can’t wait to go back to Austin for another summer of fun and learning - and we can’t wait to taste what he makes!
