CAMP GUIDE 2020 Which Camp?

You’re now beginning to think about camp, but selecting the right one can be a daunting task. So many options. Where do you begin? It’s important to start early and do your research to find out which is the best fit. The American Camp Association provides a great checklist: • View website, social media & videos: Camps have a wealth of information on their websites and social media platforms including leadership information, camp philosophy, program, activities, photos, camp video, session length, dates & rates, blogs and much more.

• Get to Know the Camp Director: The director makes the ultimate decisions at camp so when you ask questions, make sure you like the answers you are receiving. Keep in mind you are starting a partnership with the camp director so you want to make sure there is a feeling of trust and comfort.

• Tour the Camp: Scheduling a camp tour over the summer gives the future camper and family a chance to see the camp in action. Ask the camp director questions while you are in the camp environment.

This also gives children the feeling that they are part of the selection process. The more involved a child feels, the more successful the camp experience will be.

• Camp Fairs: These are free events that bring dozens of camps straight to parents, allowing parents to have one-on-one conversations with many camp directors to find out about their camp program.

NJ Camp Fairs are only in Jan/Feb. Dates are on page 23.

• Camp Open Houses: Many camps host spring and fall festivals/ open houses giving families another way to see the camp and get to know the camp staff. This is another great way to involve your child in the process of choosing a camp.

• Rookie Days: Many overnight camps offer Rookie Days or Rookie Weekends which are designed to give future campers a chance to experience the camp in session.

Also, check references. Good luck and happy camping!
