[quote=Anonymous]I LOVED sleep away camp. I was the kid that never wanted to go home. DH went as well and enjoyed his time at camp. Both of my kids have gone - my DD for 8 years, my DS for 7, and they both will go back as counselors. I think it's a chance to find a special place and learn about yourself. At the risk of sounding really old, I think in this "day and age," it's a good chance for kids to get off of screens, figure out how to resolve conflict face to face and learn how to be independent. I think the older, established camps and the traditions draw kids back each summer. And of course the campfires, fun and adventure. My kids have so many fond memories that I hear about for weeks and throughout the year. It's also - to sound really simple - a place to be a kid. Get dirty, giggle, not worry about makeup and clean clothes, and just have fun. [/quote]
