[quote=Anonymous]Resurrecting an old thread bc we've struggled (and continue to struggle with) this question! Based on our limited experience the last few years: Camp Calleva - slightly more diverse than the average sleepaway camp, which tend to skew very WASPy Camp Friendship - kid loved it, but it seemed more typical of sleepaway camps (reminded me of Get Out (the movie)). Camp Independent Lake - heard is slightly more diverse than average, but we haven't tried it bc it's quite pricey. Agree with a PP that sleepaway camps are not a thing for many families of color. (My parents would never have spent money to have us sleep in modest surroundings, although that's clearly changing with my generation.) After Camp Friendship, I realized I really didn't want kid to be the only POC in his cabin and made sure that didn't happen by sending him along with a friend who's also a POC.[/quote]
