What FOSS families have to say
"12 out of 10!!! (on a scale of 1-10) Two of my children were deathly afraid of water before attending their first Foss 2-week camp. By the end of those camps, both of them not only became good swimmers... They now love the water and love to swim!!! That’s transforming. That is Awesome! I love 💗 FOSS so much!"
