WHICH CAMPUS KIDS CAMP
SHOULD I APPLY TO?
Campus Kids-Minisink (NY)?
Campus Kids-Connecticut?
Campus Kids-New Jersey?
It's your choice! You can indicate your preference on the application
form. If you have no preference, we'll suggest which of our three
camps might be best for your skills and interests.
All three of our camps have
the same philosophy and home-on-the-weekends
schedule. All three also give campers individual, daily choice of
their activities. All three offer the same "core activities" of team
and individual sports, fine arts, performing arts, swimming, hiking and day
trips, evening activities and theme days. They are all in beautiful
rural settings, yet are less than two hours from New York City. All
three camps are accredited by the American Camp Association. Campus Kids
is non-sectarian and welcomes people of all backgrounds. Diversity
enriches the camp experience.
The differences come down to
the camp's physical setting and some of the program activities offered.
Campus Kids-Minisink
is our "cabin camp". Campers and staff live in "villages". Each
village has five cabins (two counselors and 8-10 campers in each), a modern
bath house and a common gathering building called the "village center".
Meals are served in our new dining pavillion. The setting is very woodsy. There
are two lakes, one for swimming, boating, aqua zip and "the blob", the other
lake for nature study and fishing. There's a three-level high ropes
adventure course and a climbing wall. There's an extensive nature
study program and a mountain biking program.
CK-Minisink is on the NY-NJ near Port Jervis, NY. You can browse
through camp pictures at our Campus
Kids-Minisink page.
Campus Kids-Connecticut
is one of our two "campus camps". It is on the rural,
picturesque
campus of Post University on the Middlebury-Waterbury border in
central Connecticut. Campers and staff live in "bunk groups" and the
bunk groups live in spacious dormitories. We have an indoor pool for
swimming and a nearby lake for boating and fishing. We utilize all of the
school facilities (indoors and outdoors) for our activities. You can
browse through camp pictures at our Campus
Kids-Connecticut page.
Campus Kids-New Jersey
is our original "campus camp". Located in the Delaware Water Gap area of
northwest New Jersey, our camp is on the campus of Blair Academy, a
distinguished independent boarding school in Blairstown (rural Warren County).
Campers and staff live in "bunk groups" and the bunk groups live in small
dormitories. We swim in a large indoor pool. We utilize all of
the college facilities for our activities (extensive grass and synthetic
turf fields, tennis courts, several gymnasiums, squash courts, performing
arts center, fine arts center). You
can browse through pictures at our Campus Kids-New
Jersey page.
