New Jersey Summer Day Camp Guide

4/27/11 - By Shari

Now that we've put away the winter coats (tentatively), thoughts of warm weather and the many, many school-less days coming are filling our heads. We hope that we can take the edge off with our New Jersey Summer Camp Guide, chock-full of choices from your basic outdoors swim-and-frolic Day Camps to budding thespian Performing Arts Camps, from cool Museum and Zoo Camps to unusual and creative Indoor Camps, and from see-ya-later-mom-and-dad Sleepaway Camps to wonderful Special Needs Camps. Dig right in and see if you can't find the perfect fit for your potential camper. And enjoy the thoughts of sunblock and watermelon, of pools and sports, of warm nights and long days and... well, you get it. Summer.
