My Nonprofit Reviews

I am a huge fan of The Dragons Den. My first experience was as a visitor with my son. I accompanied him as he wanted to do the ropes course. The owner convinced me to join him. I was nervous, nevertheless, I made it through with the help and encouragement from Ron cheering me on below. This past summer, my son had his first work experience at the Dragons Den. He learned everything from kitchen prep and food service to mentoring the younger kids who attended summer camp. Dragons Den partnered with Goodwills Youth Works Learn and Earn program and facilitated a fantastic hands on work experience. It is a gem in the neighborhood and a great community centered environment.

I made a reservation for my son who is 13. We checked in upon arrival and the lovely lady who runs the place, convinced me to join my son on the course. She said “Come on, mom! It will be a great mother son moment.” I caved and got harnessed. It was the best adrenaline rush experience. The course was definitely challenging, but so much fun! The young man prepped us, after checkin, with our harnesses and provided all the safety knowledge we needed to complete the course. There was an older gentleman, whom I think is named Ron?, who encouraged and followed me from ground below, cheering me on the entire time. I told him without him doing that I would have probably given up half way through. He was such a ray of sunshine! The entire staff was personable and accommodating. I cant wait to return as soon as my 45 yr old body says let’s go! ������������
