[quote=Anonymous]I went for 8 weeks a summer as a kid and loved it. During the middle school years it was really helpful for me to have a camp friend group separate from my school friends (most of my camp friends came from an area within a 3 hour drive so we would get together for b'day parties during the year). My kids have been going for 4 weeks and love it. I also love that they are 100% away from screens for a month. They waterski, sail, rock climb, clean their bunks every day, play sports, wake up at midnight and have a pizza party (IYKYK). it is truly a magical time. I miss them and would love it if they were at home, but they have more fun at camp. One of my kids goes to a Jewish camp, which has its own benefits of being someplace where everyone is Jewish and they celebrate Shabbat with friends (vs their school where only 3-4 other kids in their grade are Jewish).
