Types of Camps

There are many kinds of camps to choose from. Three of the most common are Resident Camps, Day Camps, and Travel Camps. All of the camps listed here will be participating at Kids, Camps & Connections - Camp Fair 2006, plus many more are being added every day, so make your plans to be with us!

Overnight Camps

At overnight camps (also known as resident and sleepaway camps), campers leave home to live at camp for up to several weeks at a time. They sleep overnight in cabins, tents, teepees or other forms of shelter, and they participate in a variety of supervised activities during the day. Many resident camps accomodate kids starting at age 6 and up.

Day Camps

Day camps are similar to resident camps, but without sleeping quarters. Typically, children are brought to camp in the morning on buses or vans (many day camps provide transportation as part of their tuition fee), and are then returned home in the late afternoon. Most day camps are co-ed and offer a variety of programs and actvities for children and teens ages 3 to 15.

Travel Camps

At a travel camp, kids are escorted on national and/or international excursions lasting three or more days. Travel camps are growing in popularity and typically appeal to older campers.

Remember, you'll find all these camps and many more at Kids, Camps & Connections - Camp Fair 2006, so mark your calendar now!
