    Camps

    Camps offer variety and the chance for children to grow through a special summer experience. And there is a camp to suit every child's age, interest and taste. How about an extreme sport camp? Can you see your child going to rock-and-roll camp? Maybe computer or swim camp would be more to his or her taste? Whatever you and your child are looking for, chances are there is a camp out there offering the exact summer program you're seeking.

    Many camps cater to a broad range of ages, from four years old to teenagers.

    Some camps structure their programs to evolve with interests and needs, so children can "grow up" at the camp. Summer camps have a distinctive culture and embrace a certain set of values, which is why many tend to hire former campers as counsellors.

    Camps are microcosms--special summer communities. Children from all walks of life can be found at camps. Families from many cultural backgrounds are exploring and embracing the camp life.
