If you're sending your child to camp for the first time, a camp that is relatively close to your home might provide some reassurance. Not only is the area familiar, but in case of an emergency, you could be there quickly. Some camps close their enrollment for summer sessions as early as January or February. Start early in deciding on summer camp so you don't choose one and then discover it is no longer accepting reservations. It's never too early to start thinking about camp for next summer.
Some camps offer early registration fees at reduced rates.
