My son is not into sports and all the camps he loved when younger (Zoo and Audubon) either have limited options for his age (Zoo) or less interesting (Audubon.) He spent 6 weeks at Valley Mill last summer and really liked but is agitating for a change this year. I just can't find any other good options. Calleva seems way too intensely athletic (stuff like caving and mountain biking etc aren't his thing.)

I know most kids this age go to overnight camp OR just hang at home. But neither are good options for our family. Am I missing any great places for non-sporty middle school boys? Thanks!!

The chess club actually runs a chess camp! Might be of interest.
