Strong tradition
For more than
Summer camps are the ideal choice for a child’s first independent introduction to another culture. Camp is safe, fun, enriching in every way and offers a variety of activities not offered at home. The most valuable aspect is the lifelong friendships and bonds formed at camp.
The tradition of children’s camps is very strong in the US and Canada. Each year, over 10 million children spend their summer vacation at one of the 10,000 camps in North America. A significant percentage of these camps have been in operation for over 100 years without interruption.
There are camps that average perhaps 100 children, but there are also camps that care for up to 1,000 children every day. However, the capacity of most camps is somewhere in the middle, at 300 to 600 places.
The camps are located in beautiful countryside, but relatively close to the big cities where most of the children come from.
How do the camps run
No day is
No boring days
Children will try out a range of fun activities and skills – from sports and arts to water and adventure activities.
Technology-free zone
Camp is a technology-free zone where kids can virtually unplug to enjoy real life and make personal friendships.
Accredited camps
All camps we work with are accredited by the American Camping Association and adhere to their strict standards and regulations, including having medical staff present at all times.
Qualified instructors
The camps are run by experts and educators who have worked with children and young people all their lives. Children are supervised and taught daily by qualified instructors, usually between the ages of 19 and 30.
Accommodation and dates
We choose the right
one for you
For whom?
Camps are generally for children aged 7-17 and are either co-ed or for girls or boys only. There are also camps for whole families.
LENGTH OF STAY AND DATES
Camps are available for 1-8 weeks from June to August. Each of the hundreds of camps has different dates. So we also choose based on your time preferences. The minimum stay is 14 days, we recommend 3 weeks. Children in the US often go for the entire summer.
ACCOMMODATION AND FOOD
Children usually live in bunks / cabins with their age group. Some are equipped with air conditioning others are not. Meals can be buffet style or served. The children get to sample many American specialties such as grilled cheese, Thanksgiving dinner, roast beef, mac and cheese, French toast. Each camp can cater differently to different dietary restrictions or preferences.
CAMP PRICE
We also select the camp according to your financial preferences. Approximate prices for a 2-week camp range from $2,000 – $6,000, and for a mid-summer camp (3-4 weeks) range from $3,500 – $10,000. The cost includes all lodging, meals, and programming during the camp stay. The main extra costs are transportation, insurance and pocket money.
Types of US summer camps
From traditional
Traditional - private
The camps have been family owned and run for generations and offer the widest range of activities.
Family camps
Camps for the entire families. Some have more programming and rules, others less.
Sponsored by non-profit organizations
These camps can often be cheaper than privately owned camps. They can typically have more rustic accommodation and host a diverse range of children from different socio-economic backgrounds. These include the Boy Scouts, YMCA, JCC, Salvation Army, and other independent organizations.
Sports Camps
These camps are often located on university campuses, with specialized training sessions run by Olympic coaches and elite athletes. Primarily, these are specialized camps for swimming, tennis, gymnastics, soccer, volleyball, basketball and many other sports.
Religious camps
These camps, like non-profit camps, are funded by churches, synagogues or other religious groups. We work with a number of Catholic, Christian, Jewish and other camps.
Camps for children with special needs
Such as autism, blindness or a whole range of cognitive, emotional or physical handicaps.
