Great Kids Camps is introduced by the founders of Andy’s Parties ,a DC-area based company that has led more than 2000 events for more than 50,000 kids since its inception in 2004. After working with so many great kids, helping them celebrate special days, we have been fortunate to build up a great staff and breadth of curriculum to now help great kids celebrate more days than just birthdays. 
Andrew Ross is an entrepreneur with substantial experience in small business. After graduating with a degree in business from the Wharton Business School, he spent seven years in the private equity and consulting industries, helping grow many businesses. However, ever since he graduated from high school, Andy has longed for his previous years as a camp counselor and child’s party planner and entertainer. For five summers as a day camp counselor, he taught young children to swim, make crafts, and play sports. His glory culminated as he led his young purple team to victories in color wars! As an employee of a party planning company in New Jersey, he 
helped plan and lead fun and exciting birthday parties for kids. He has leveraged his business knowledge to start Andy’s Parties and now Great Kids Camps, both of which will surely be entertaining kids for years to come! Andy is primarily responsible for the strategic direction of the business, creating partnerships, and building a great team. He has been thrilled with the success of Andy’s Parties and Great Kids Camps to date!
Paula Ross is primarily in charge of developing new curricula. By training, a communications consultant to corporate clients, she has many years of planning and facilitation experience for social and business events - from huge company holiday gatherings to smaller and mid-sized town hall meetings and open houses in communities where her clients are doing business. In recent years, Paula has also spearheaded the development of the Andy’s Parties theme party offerings and the Kaleidoscope Enrichment Curriculum. Paula really enjoys working with kids and is looking forward to ensuring that our campers will always have fun things to do!! On top of it all, Andrew and Paula have a 2.5 old little girl and a baby boy born last summer!
