Camps

My twins turn 8 this summer and we're embarking on our first foray into kid sports!  I'll admit, this Momma was not at all prepared for the idea of my kiddos competing in a sport of any kind, but I'll happily report the benefits of participating far outweigh any negatives.  Now, our camp options for summer vacation just exploded to include sports camps!  They offer a fantastic opportunity for your active kiddo to spend time honing their skills of the sport or activity they love or to learn the fundamentals of something new.  Lucky for us, living in New London county, with our miles of coastline, a host of recreational areas and award winning facilities catering to a wide spectrum of sports and abilities, this area boasts a gold mine of summer sport camp options

I never dreamed I might entertain the idea of sleepaway camp for my not-quite-8-year-old twins.  Too young, right?  Actually, no.  Many trusted, accredited camps offer introductory programs for kiddos as young as 7 years old, and begin a tradition of returning to camp long into their high school days.  Interested in taking the leap into an overnight, resident camp?  Take a peek at what the Eastern part of Connecticut has to offer!
