In 1989, Crestwood School purchased the beautiful valley lands at Lawrence Ave. and Bayview Ave. in Toronto. In 1990, a select group of teachers and professionals created Crestwood Valley Day Camp, which opened that same summer. Eric Shendelman has over 20 years of camp experience and has a great passion for working with children. As a parent and a teacher, Eric clearly understands the importance of safety and fun at camp. Eric's expertise in the areas of creative programming, physical education and aquatics, will benefit Crestwood's vast amount of activities. Eric is committed to helping children develop their skills in this dynamic and supportive environment. Bobby Freeman, Crestwood’s Co-Director, is the spirit and energy of the camp. The children adore him! Bobby is very creative. He is a talented musician and an outrageous performer. He has a sincere love for children and a loyal dedication to providing the best for their welfare, development and fun.
- Taylor De Sa, our Head Counsellor, has over a decade of 'hands-on' experience as a staff member at Crestwood Valley Day Camp. Taylor's warm and nurturing personality has branded her the 'camp mom' by our staff, campers and parents. Her energy is directed towards overseeing the training and mentoring of our staff, in order to maintain continuity and a safe and exciting atmosphere at camp. Taylor's ongoing staff training focuses on building the confidence of each camper. She is happy to speak with parents and answer their questions year round.
This team of directors provides a dynamic presence at camp. Their steadfast commitment is promised to every child, parent, and staff member - to build special memories that will last a lifetime!
