For 8-10 year olds, the program is only one week. Age 11-15 is two weeks. |

| Eisner. Sessions are 3 or 4 weeks. Option to go full summer but common not to until the very last summer ( and even then some only do 1 session) |

| Camp Runoia- totally down to earth, traditional but with inclusive values. They have 3 week sessions and shorter (I think 10 day) sessions. All girls in Maine. My daughter has been going for a few summers and loves it. They have a good number of Jewish campers but are a secular camp. |

I agree with Eisner. Our daughter will be going there this summer for overnight. She has done 2 summers of daycamp there previously and cannot wait. |

Camp Hidden Meadows (Bartow, WV)
- co-ed - old school no-tech camp - great farm and garden program, outdoor living skills, outdoor cooking, river play and each week the kids pick a new adventure (hikes, swimming holes, overnight backpacking trip, etc) - there are court and field sports (not really competitive) and aquatics as well. climbing is popular, as is culinary arts, pottery, arts and crafts, drama, etc. It's largely a choice based program, supplemented with cabin activities - does 1 and 2 week sessions, but you can combine for more if you like. they group kiddos so that 2 weekers are generally with 2 seekers to minimize interruptions, and 2 weeks (or more) is becoming the norm though there are still 1 week kiddos - lots of DMV kids - secular, but there are a fair number of jewish kiddos and counselors |
