Camp Parent 101

We know that selecting a camp and preparing for the summer is an exciting process for the entire family. On top of all the excitement, there are as many questions about this process as there are reasons for giving your son the incredible gift of summer camping.

Camp Parent 101 is designed to be a resource for your family (especially new families) as you count down to the start of the camp season.

Over the years we have compiled a number of informative articles, many written by well-respected child therapists, and have identified a few great websites that address many of the questions and concerns that you may have. From homesickness to understanding our “no cell phone” policy, the information and links below are valuable resources. Of course, we’re just a phone call away. Never hesitate to call with questions you have along the way.
