SUMMER CAMP

Summer camps usually begin toward the end of June and run throughout the summer. Camp programs usually do not accept children under the age of 4. Most programs begin their enrollment process in January. You may wish to perform your own search on the internet for summer camp programs in your area or to look through publications for camp advertisements, such as The Parents Paper. Included below are some websites you may find useful in your search for a summer camp program:
