[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sleep-away camp is for rich people. The vast majority of families can not ever afford to send their kids to a sleep-away camp without receiving some sort of donation or charity. [/quote] This.[/quote] Not necessarily true. Look into 4-H camp. They are grouped by county and, in Virginia, go for 4 nights/5 days starting at age 9 (called Junior camp). 5-8 year old can go with a parent (or both) for 2 nights (called Cloverbud Camp). They are extremely reasonably priced, especially compared to other sleep away camps. I started going at 9, then was a counselor, and eventually on the summer staff so obviously I'm biased but I think it's great. My kids are Cloverbud aged now but when they go to Junior camp, I'll go along as a volunteer (because I miss going to camp!). [/quote]
