I had an amazing time rock climbing. You gave me the courage to get back on the wall and try another time.
- Samantha K.
The rock wall helps make our event a success every year. Your team is great.
- The Saturday in the Park Committee
Thank you sooo much for coming to the City of Downey. Aspire really appreciates all your staff for bringing the rock wall. All the middle school students had a great time. Keep up the great work you guys do.
- Sandy and the Aspire Staff
Thank you for helping me rock climb and believing in all the kids….you made this trip extra enjoyable.

I just wanted to let you know that everything went extremely well today. Peter was amazing. Thank you again for a great summer!
- Lisa M., Recreation Coordinator
Thanks for all the wonderful activities you manage for us, the kids really benefit.
- Stu K, Teacher
During the team building I had a lot of fun. It helped me to trust my teammates and think of creative ways to solve things. The activities were exciting and allowed me to learn a lot.

Involvement with Champions has helped out students reach our goals, by providing them with motivational activities that promote cooperation and teamwork, and build self-confidence.
Our students have participated in a range of programs through Champions that include after school athletic and dance programs, school wide team building activities, and the Teen Adventure Challenge. The school community has been continually impressed with both the high quality programs and professionalism from the Champions staff. We believe that our involvement with Champions programs has promoted academic achievement for participating students, and fostered interested that will benefit them at higher educational levels.
As a Middle School Principal, I give Champions my whole-hearted support, and feel extremely fortunate to have formulated this partnership that enhances the educational experiences of our students.
- Donna J., Principal
My husband and I wanted to let you know much my child has enjoyed the summer Champions program. He has been excited and happy each day and has enjoyed the exposure to new sports. It has also opened the doors for him socially with the other boys. It has also offered more opportunities for compassion as he has become aware of some of the challenges faced by others (his cousin also has Aspergers). We have also been impressed by the organization and quality of the program specifics and counselors.
We would love to see this program continue next summer. Let us know how else we can sing the praises of Champions.
- Megan and Peter B.
Thank you for making my experience at Joshua Tree so memorable. I really enjoyed the hike and the biking. They both really challenged me but were so much fun. I really learned a lot during the astronomy lesson and the night hike was really amazing. Thanks again!
- Allyx T., Student
I heard nothing but positive comments from the participants and the word of mouth has already started filtering to other members of our community. This is an experience the participants will never forget and I am grateful that I had the opportunity to be a part of it.
- Priscilla Z., Rec Supervisor
Thank you for everything. The kids had a fantastic time. The activities were engaging and the food was great.
- Shelley L., Principal
Our staff loved the team-building experience you provided for our staff development day. No one felt threatened, inadequate, or unable to participate, and all enjoyed the experience. I think what really won them over was your ability to bring the experiences back to the classroom. The discussions helped the teachers to reflect not only on their performance on the yard, but how they respond to the needs of their students in the classroom. Everyone, myself included, was impressed with your knowledge of sound teaching and instruction, your warmth and humor, and your approach with adults. I can’t thank you enough for bringing this positive experience to our staff. Thanks again.
- Jackie S., Assistant Principal
We have had several excellent experiences with Champions. We will be continuing our relationship with them for a long time to come. I highly recommend them.
- Kaye R., Principal
It's really convenient having all these great options here on the school grounds. No need to take the kids to piano class, and then soccer class, and then dance. All of it is all in one place!
- Enrichment Parent
Champions has provided after-school programming for our students over the past four years. During that time we have found the staff to be responsive and caring toward our students and families. The activities and supervision offered have met all of our needs and been beyond our expectations. The after-school program is structured, organized and designed to allow our students time for homework and a variety of exploration through “club” experiences.
- Janis B., Chief Educational Advocate
The CHAMPIONS PE program has provided our school with a cost effective and flexible way to provide a quality program.
I like the team play they stress and how they get all of the kids involved. Their instructors inspire the kids, provide a wide range of activities and make the activities enjoyable.
