It seems like a nice program.
Anyone who went please share positive experiences.
Specifically, how was the day camp?
How were the meals, with small children?

OP would this be your first pesach program? Because meals are hard with little kids in every pesach program.

Pesach programs aren’t for everyone tbh. people whose kids are on a very strict schedule for example find programs stressful. But also, meals in programs can be long and sitting at a table may necessitate toys for the table (books, card games, stickers) Other families let their kids run around but the. They’re not supervised. Daycamp almost always is adjourned for meals so that’s not an option

That I know.
I'm mentally prepared.
I'm asking specifically about the experience at Gateways, though.

We went years ago and it was very nice. They have children’s dinner to feed the kids before late night seudahs. They offer babysitting ( for an additional fee I think) the camp is fabulous, if you get your kids to go. Mine were about 6,5 and mb 1 and they did not want to go. Food was good, the kiddish was always the same stuff. Not the best program we’ve been to, but nice. What I render most was the hotel rooms were really small ( it was in CT at the time)

I go to gateways for all the smaller holidays, but haven’t been for pesach in a few years. It’s not a luxury program but can be really nice depending on what type you’re looking for

I heard great things about KMR. I didn't see anything about pesach 2024 on their site.

They always come out with their info very late in the game. It doesn't matter because most of their clients will go with them anywhere. They have a very loyal base.

Gateways is not reasonable. They are going to nicer hotels now.

My best friend has gone to Gateways for the last few years. I asked for her feedback and she said the hotels the last few years are really nice and the food is amazing and plentiful.
Her favorite part is that the crowd is made up of people who are coming for good company, good lectures and a fair price point. She went to other programs and found ppl to be much more peer pressured type and here she says it’s more relaxed.
