From the Owner -

"After working as the Director of Outdoor Adventure Programming at one of Americas largest summer camps for over sixteen years I know what kids and teens want! I wanted to offer a higher level of rock climbing camp, similar to the ski, and tennis 'Pro Camps'. So I hired the best instructors and guides in the business that have years of experience working with teens and started the FMG Rock Camp."
