Perhaps the most common question parents have about summer camp concerns when and the length of the sessions. They often ask us, “What’s a good length of time for summer camp programs?” Summer camp can be as short as one week or as long as eight weeks. Parents want to provide the best possible experiences for their children, so they wonder what the trade-offs are regarding the different session lengths.
Summer camp is one of the most powerful youth development experiences that a child can have. When successful, camps foster skills that are critical to success in college and career (as well as everyday life now). These include grit, independence, critical thinking, collaboration, communication, and leadership. Our passion is to understand the best ways to run camp so that campers learn these skills while having a blast at the same time. When choosing a camp a parent should focus on how well the experience will help their child gain these advantages.
