Traditional Summer Camps – A Traditional Camp for Kids
A traditional summer camp offers a well-rounded approach to programs and activities, providing an environment where participants can enjoy time in the outdoors, learn new skills, make new friends, and expand their interests.
At a traditional summer camp, you can learn, grow and have fun, all while enjoying fresh air and sunshine. At camp, you can learn how to skipper a sailboard, ride a horse, learn rock-climbing techniques, develop wilderness skills, build a campfire, tell tall tales, sing songs or even put on a play!
A classic summer camping experience fosters cooperation and leadership among its participants, allows a level of independence, and relieves the pressures of school and daily worries. Most of all, friendships forged and memories made at summer camp may last a lifetime.
Traditional outdoor camping programs are available for kids of all ages, single sex or co-ed, and are typically in a sleep away format, whether in a tent, cabin, or right under the stars!
Some of America's most spectacular natural settings play host to summer camps – from the sweeping coastline of California to the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, to the desert canyons of Colorado to the temperate rainforests of Alaska.

Many traditional camps offer specialized programs where outdoor fun is coupled with fitness training or weight loss programs, all with the intent of releasing healthier campers back into civilization!
An increasing trend of many traditional camps is to adapt programs to include campers who face physical and mental challenges, such as hearing impairment, or ADHD.
A traditional summer camp is more than fun and activities, though. It broadens campers' experience and teaches them how to live with others, share their time and friendship, and offers opportunities for adventure, achievement and personal growth.
