Please sign up by Wednesday, July 5th to be included in the Week 3 session. You can sign up by emailing your Division Head or responding to this email.  This is a free pull-out club for Crestwood campers and is available on a first-come first-serve basis. Campers in the soccer camp will miss scheduled group activities or elective time to participate in the program.  If you have further questions, please let us know and Ken Korder, our Associate Director / Athletics Director will contact you.

Coach Bryan’s Bio
A lifelong soccer player and fan, Bryan began his soccer career at age 18 as a longtime grassroots coach with Coastal Soccer, which would later become SUSA FC, one of the largest youth soccer clubs in New York, after his departure. He spent 6 years with Coastal Soccer, honing his craft and being mentored by some of the game’s best coaches and instructors. At age 24, he would become the Director of Coaching at Hicksville Soccer Club and this is where the passion for leading coaches began. He learned from a young age that mistakes are how kids and coaches grow and develop, and people learn in sports today different from how they learned 20 years ago.

Bryan would go on to be the Assistant Director of Training & Development Programs for the New York Cosmos, where he oversaw the growth and development of the Cosmos’s youth training programs and academy, from its infancy to the world class organization it has become today. Notably, during his time with the New York Cosmos, Bryan coached their U12, U13, and U14 academy boy’s teams during the US Soccer Development Academy’s inaugural season.

WALDO Photo Service

Published on: 06/29/23 6:58 PM

Our Camp Photographers will be posting hundreds of photos each day to our Camp Photo Galleries.
This summer we will be using a new Photo Service and Website called WALDO. 

Please email info@crestwoodcountryday.com to get the link to begin – (It is recommended to use your cell phone):
Photos from Clothing & Family Fun Day and the first days of camp have already been posted.

Please note: 

• For ease of use and for notifications, download the WALDO app from the app store.
• The Waldo galleries will include facial recognition for all campers.
• For facial recognition, parents will need to follow the prompts in the Waldo App and upload a photo of their child.
• Facial Recognition is not perfect, and unfortunately will likely not work for a small percentage of campers (problems occur more often with some preschool age campers and those with glasses)
• The delivery of photos of your camper to your phone (mobile app) is a free service for Crestwood Families
• Our photographers do their best to capture every group on a weekly basis in addition to special events at camp.
• We encourage you to browse the camp albums to see everything that Crestwood offers.

For questions about WALDO – please contact the Waldo Q&A Team – support@waldophotos.com
