FYI, info on Casparan Rowing Center on Mercer Lake

As someone already mentioned, Mercersburg has excellent swimming. It is a good location for you - not too far from Virginia- and manages to be both low-key and challenging. It is a very sane and gracious place and well worth your serious consideration.
The Storm King School has to be an all time best name
Hun School Motto “Crush your enemies. See them driven before you. Hear the lamentations of their women”
I have dropped Storm King School. It has almost 50% international students and also there was a big scandal when a student was raped. The school did not handle it well. Students came out speaking out against the school - just doesn’t seem like the environment I want to be in. I originally looked at it due to location.
Sounds like they DIDNT hear the Lamentations of their women…
