[quote=Anonymous]For me it was. I also went to simple sleepaway camps and had an amazing time. They can be incredibly special places. Our boys go to one now and love it. The camps that run for multiple week sessions with campers that come back summer after summer are usually pretty amazing. Just popping in for a week one time at age 12 will not always be as amazing. Starting your kids on the younger end by 9 or so and then going each year, it becomes a safe space, another group of friends outside of school friends which is great for kids, a place to try new things, feel a sense of community. But it’s not for everyone and I totally understand why going to a Y family camp as an adult wouldn’t hit! As adults we need a little more creature comforts [/quote]
