[quote=Anonymous]I'm gonna be a dissenter to the day camp advocates and say you should send him to sleepaway, although I would look at a shorter time period. If he goes to day camp even an outdoorsy one like Calleva, he will come home and want to get on the xbox. Also, I doubt he'll make friends at Calleva since the camper group changes each week. Whereas at sleepaway camp, he will be electronics free all day and night, and hopefully will have a fun time bonding with the kids and won't care that he doesn't have his ipod touch in hand when he is chilling out. I agree with the poster who said to make sure it is not a super sporty camp. There are plenty of great camps that offer 2 and 3 week sessions, not just 6-7 weeks. Also many times if you ask the camp will let you do a shorter period if you are a frist time camper. Camp Emerson in the Bershires could be a good fit. More locally, Tall Timbers and Twin Creeks.
