[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]additions I have not yet seen for the MD burbs - City of Greenbelt camps are very high quality for the money - We also tried Ancestral Knowledge camp - also in greenbelt right off the parkway. Several University of Maryland camps are great (sports, bugs, terp quest, gymkana) and used by many people I know.[/quote] I just wanted to add another option near UMD/Greenbelt for people looking for something on the east side of D.C. My kids' school, Friends Community School in College Park, has revamped its program this year to offer a lot of one-week camps. I cannot personally vouch for the camp as this is the first year we're trying it. But it's quite affordable, I think: $240/week. The school is one mile inside the beltway, a 20-minute drive from Capitol Hill or Takoma Park/Silver Spring and a world away from the city on 17 acres of protected wetlands. They're in a LEED-certified green building that is in the process of expanding to add art and performance space. Camp offerings include Spanish Immersion; Harry Potter; Games; Robotics; Film-Making; Photography; Computer Quest; Gargoyles & Ghosts; Castles & Catapults; Eco-Adventure; Art; Jewelry; Drumming & Music; Puppet Theater; Writing & Math Enrichment; and Countdown to High School.
