Which Summer Camp is for my child's age group?
Our Summer Camp Weeks go by the child's grade in school rather than their age. You can choose to make the grade determination by the grade the child is currently enrolled [before Summer Camp] or the grade they will be in the next school year [in the Fall].
Teen Camp = 7th through 12th graders
Junior Camp = 4th through 6th graders
Primary Camp = 1st - 3rd graders [preferably completed 1st grade]
When a child is a 6th grader in the Spring they can go to Junior Camp and/or Teen Camp.
The same is true when a child is in third grade in the Spring and can go to Primary Camp and/or Junior Camp, however once a child goes to Junior Camp they will not likely want to return to Primary Camp. Primary Camp is a good first taste and allows the child to get used to being away from Mom for a couple nights. Unlike 5-day Junior campers the Primary campers are led around on a horse and do not "trail ride" nor do they ride "Zippy" the 450' long zipline.
