Wow! What does this include?


It includes their children not living at their home for most of the summer. Not what I have in mind.

It can be done with half the cost. County Rec camps are good and are closer to $400 a week for 9-4 coverage.


A college nanny would be way less too. They’d do it for $800/week ($20x40.)

Dang. I thought I was splurging with camps in that price range. They are generally run by specialty groups and high quality.

Luckily for my kids, my goal is not to put them in the cheapest camp I can possibly find.

I don't understand your question. We have no problem with this. It's a great camp and I expect the kids will have a wonderful summer.

We need camp as childcare and our town offers VERY cheap camp (like $1300 total) for all but the first and last week of summer vacation. Unfortunately, there is no aftercare for the youngest cohort. So our 5 yo will be going to a very nice camp that is 5x as much but has care until 6 and door to door bus service. Sigh. I hope he doesn’t get used to it because it’ll be bare bones town camp once he qualifies for aftercare next year.

I feel lucky with what we have after reading this! One camp for 7 weeks, 5 days a week is $2200, then a 4 day camp for $150 (there is a foundation that funds most of it) and then another week at $350. $2725 for the summer, plus a family vacation for the last week.
