There is a wide variety of summer camps available to help kids of all ages stay active and mentally stimulated before the next school year. Whether your family calls Jersey home or you’d like to give your children a chance to visit somewhere new, camps in this state are excellent places to spend summer.
Going to Camp in the Garden State
A lot of the camps in New Jersey and around the tristate area emphasize adventure and nature exploration, particularly the summer camps in South Jersey. Located by lakes, near woods, or in the mountains, they offer plenty of outdoor activities like hiking, canoeing, and more.
North Jersey, encompassing summer camps in New Jersey’s Bergen County, Essex County, and Union County, are closer to New York and therefore have more of an urban environment, making them more likely to host tech programs, theater camps, and other academic and artistic pursuits.
Whatever your child’s passion, there’s a summer camp that caters to their interests. New Jersey has both day camps and longer-term residential camp programs, along with coed camps or those just for girls or boys.
