Here is a look at two really strong summer camps for parents in Charlotte, North Carolina and surrounding states.
North Carolina Outward Bound
Outward Bound is one of the most recognized wilderness education organization. The North Carolina Outward Bound program has worked for over 40 years on kids inner strengths and potential. Activities include: Boating, Camping/Hiking, Rock Climbing, Backpacking, Whitewater Canoeing, and Sea Kayaking.
Cost: $795-$3,195 Age range: 12+ Sex: Co-Ed
Cedar Grove Overnight Camp
Cedar Grove Christian Camp offers week long overnight camps for rising fourth graders to rising twelfth graders. The camp is situated only 30 minutes north of Charlotte. The residential camp features ‘crazy games’, good food, and more. Activities that your kids will participate in: High and low ropes, rock climbing, rappelling, paintball, water park, canoeing, basketball, volleyball, crafts, Hawaiian luau night, talent show and tons more!
Cost: $240-$260 Age range: Grades 4-12
Located in the Pocono Moutains in Pennsylavania, Camp Netimus is one of the best overnight camps for girls in the Middle Atlantic region. The camp has over 40 activities for students to participate in, a great deal for a small camp. The camp runs June 28 to August 15. The entire season is $6,200 and one week is $1,075. This can be difficult for the longer stay campers who see kids come and go, but still makes for a great experience. This is a great camp for families in New York City, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington, DC.
Kingsley Pines is running 2009 overnight camps in Maine for ages 8-15. The camps are really great for parents in the Northeast, especially greater Boston (it is around 2 hours from Boston). All kids summer camps there are co-educational. The camp is on a lake in the Sebago lake region of Maine.
