SUMMER CAMP PLANNING TIMELINE

INthese cold winter months, it’s hard to imagine that summer will ever return. But, planning and organizing the summer calendar for yourself and your kids is an essential winter activity! This is especially true if you plan to send your child to one or more summer camps. Summer camps start filling up in March, which means that families start researching and planning in January and February, according to the American Camp Association (ACA).

If you are looking to sign your child up for camp this summer, understanding the typical summer camp planning timeline matters. So too does knowing how to research camps. While many parents reserve camp session spots two-to-three months in advance, they first spend one-to-two months doing research and organizing their summer plans.
