The J.C. Hester House, was my first Job , I worked in the Summer Programs for 2 years , when Kathy Whitmeyer was the Mayor of Houston . After having the opportunity to visit the location today, I must say it was very clean, everything in side is first class. I am so PROUD to be a product of Fifth Ward, Texas home of the Purple & White. It was a pleasure meeting, Mrs. Marie Mure, is very professional and I notice she has a relationship with the SENIOR as well, as the YOUTH.P.S. It was so good seeing the Harris County Officers, helping the Children celebrate October 31st, early along with keeping them SAFE.I PRAY THOSE DOORS - NEVER CLOSE....... SERVING the Community !!!!! ??

I had a wonderful time at Hester House. I learned so much about gardening. Our instructor was excellent. Mr. George has a great passion for what he does. Ashley was great as well. I will go back again.

This place has went down hill since last year. It’s kids (Teachers)watching kids. If you have a problem with kids then clearly this is not the right field for you. My child will no longer attend this place I will find her something else for the summer. Horrible

The Hester house has a horrible summer camp. The biggest problem is that there are children watching children. There is absolutely no adult supervision, once again just kids watching kids. No one is ever around to watch the children, and I myself have seen the counselors question the children(class) about issues that have arisen between the kids. Which leaves me with the assumption that she or the other counselors(kids) we're not actually paying attention anyways. You have the counselors questioning the campers in a room by themselves once the parent leaves, trying to coerce them to change their stories. I was a child who spent many summer and many days in after school at The Hester House, and I wanted my child to experience and be exposed to some of the greatness that I was as a child coming to the Hester house. But Ms. Tia Bonham and her staff of unattentive counselors are horrible. I will just simply say that with this experience I definitely do not mind paying at the YMCA for me and my child to have a piece of sanity. I know that some may feel by it being free, no one should complain, you guys are still being held to the same standards as a paying summer camp. I had really high hopes, but my child has been terrorized and never wants to come back.????
