    I'm looking for any experiences with the Jewish Community Camp (JCC) in
    Lancaster, MA.  Has anyone ever sent their children there?  What was
    your impression (good or bad)?  Also, any info on curriculum,
    adult/child ratio, transportation, rates, etc., would be appreciated.
    
    Thanx,
    Deb
    

    You might also try asking in the Jewish interest notesfile
    (TAVENG::BAGELS).

    Actually, I am not Jewish, so I did not know about the other notesfile. 
    Thanks for the pointer.  From what I understand, this camp is open to
    anyone.  I've heard from a couple of people that it is a very good
    summer camp, but wanted to open it up for more discussion/opinions.
    
    Thanx,
    Deb
    

    
    
    I would like some feedback regarding a summer camp I recently visited.
    
    If anyone has any experience with it good/bad please send me a mail
    message.  I would greatly appreciate it. 
    
    APPLEWILD SUMMER CAMP - Fitchburg, MA
    
    This is a camp that is run out of the Applewild School.  This is a
    private elementary school, they have a what seems to be a great
    program, the councilor to child ratio in the junior camp is great.
    I thought I would ask our community if anyone has had children
    enrolled.
    
    Also, if anyone has any other leads on summer day camps that aren't too
    outrageous in price.  
    
     
                                                                      

    Re. Applewild Camp
    
    Do you know what the cost is for this camp?
    
    Thanks.
    

    I'm looking for experiences/knowledge of an overnight camp in Ashby, MA
    called "4-H Camp Middlesex."  I've talked to the director and have
    gotten curriculum, prices, etc., but was looking for some personal
    experiences, good or bad.
    
    I'm also open to any other overnight camp referrals in the
    Massachusetts/Southern New Hampshire, preferrably reasonably priced. 
    This is for my son, who will be 10 years old next month.
    
    Thanx!

I remember hearing about a summer camp in Northboro Mass, for kids of Digital employees. Does
anyone have any information about this camp? I don't recall all of the details - I believe it had
a Computer - Scienctific  theme. 

Anyone know of this camp being offered again this summer?

thanks
don

    It is usually held at the Hillside School in Marlboro on the Northboro
    line.  When I worked at MRO1 these were always signs posted on the
    bulletin board announcing the program and who to contact for info.
    I believe this is a bit early in the season for this to be announced
    yet, start looking in LIVEWIRE for info on this I'd say sometime
    around April.
    
    If I remember correctly there were 2 2 week sessions offered.

My step-son has expressed an interest in going to a Boy Scout camp this
summer while he is here.  Are there any Boy Scount camps that have day
camp programs in the Southern NH area ? We live in Merrimack, I will soon
be working in Merrimack (MKO), but my husband works in southern Nashua (ZKO).
Since this would mean taking our two children to different summer programs, 
logistics would be an important consideration for us.  Both he and his younger
sister have been going to Camp Sargent in Merrimack which has been really
convenient for us, but I'm afraid he's getting a little bored with it.  Are
there any Girl Scout camps (with day programs) in the area as well ?  Both 
children are members of scout troops in Colorado.  

Leslie

    Anyone have any experience with these Girl Scout camps:
    		Camp Albany  Albany, NH
    		Camp Farnsworth   Thetford, VT
    
    Both offer Brownie sessions for girls entering 2nd and 3rd. Grade.  
    Any experience with these?  
    
    If your girls went, how old were they and did they like it?
    
    I'd love to hear from you - positive and/or negative info welcome.
    
    Thanks!

    Any recommendations for day camp in the Nashua/Merrimack/Bedford NH
    corridor?
    
    I can recommend the summer program at the Manchester Gymnastics Academy
    in Hooksett, where my stepdaughter (10) has gone in years past. She seems
    bored with it, though, and would like to do something else this summer.

    Alex missed a week of school (flu) and so didn't get the notice of
    Shrewsbury's "camp fair" night; it was last night, and we missed it. 
    Did anybody go and collect handouts for summer day-camp in the
    Shrewsbury-to-Marlboro (MA) area?  I'd appreciate an e-mail with just
    the names & phone numbers of what's out there.... thanks in advance!

I'm looking for a sleepover camp for my 10 year old son, anywhere in
the New England area.  Ideal would be one that had lots of nature/hiking,
and/or science type stuff and/or acting/singing.  Also, it probably
should be no longer than 2 weeks.  Anyone have any experience with
such camps that they'd recommend?

    I started looking for a day camp that would be something like 2-4
    hours/day for a few days/week or up to 2 weeks. Also looking in the
    Hudson/Marlboro area but even within a 15 min ride. Note 160.0 is
    interesting and I have info coming. I also called Pompisiticut(sp?) in
    Hudson but they're are booked for the summer. 
    
    	Thanks, Mike.

    Years ago my kids went to the Salvation Army Camp, I believe it was in
    Athol or that area. (My friend's kids still go there every year) A bus
    takes them from Worcester and there is another bus from Boston. It is a
    2 week overnight. 
    
    If you want info. Call Salvation Army in Boston. I could get the number
    if someone wants it.

         Like a few other noters, I am looking for summer camp info in the
    southern NH area.  Also interested in Manchester and Concord areas.

Elspeth attended this for a week a couple of years ago and had a good time.
Also, I can speak very highly of Kirstin Kantner -- she was our favorite 
babysitter until she went off to college.

Summer Mountain will be led by Kaeli Sutton (19) and Kirstin Kantner (18) who
will bring their love of hiking, nature, music, dance, arts and crafts, along
with extensive childcare experience to this wonderful month of camp.

The cost per week is $85.  Please call Kirstin or Kaeli at 654-2523 for more
information and registration details.  We look forward to hearing from old and
new campers alike and can't wait to see you all soon.

    I am looking for a summer "camp/sportsprogram" (NOT DAYCARE) for the

    a decision.  One is JCC (Jewish Community Camp).  The other is the
    Orchard Hills Athletic Club summer program.
    
    Any info good or bad would be appreciated.  I need to make a decision
    this week.

I'm looking for summer camp for my daughter. Rowena will be 9 this summer.

I need something that has an extended day (8ish to 6ish).

I've talked this over with her. She wants to do mostly day camp. In the past
she's gone to camps that have a sleepover option once a week and she likes 
that idea.

She does not want to swim in a cold lake, which is her main complaint about 
one previous camp. She also said she does not want to do something that is 
like school. I think the 1994 Digital Summer Enrichment Camp looks good from
the description posted so I've phoned for details.

I live in Westborough and work in Littleton so camps in between the two are 
most convenient. We may spend some tim ein Leominstaer so camps between 
Leominster and Littleton are also of interest.

I'd really like to hear about peoples experince with camps in these areas.

Thanks,
Peter.

    
    hi,
    
     I am looking for information on a summer weight loss camp for kids,
     age is around 12.  NH/Mass area ideal.  Pls send me mail if you know
     of anything.  Thanks,

RE: -1

May I suggest, that unless the child is the one requesting to go to a weight loss
camp, put the idea out of your head.

I was an obese child. Unless you have been there, you don't know how humiliating
that could be. Even if done "out of love". If you love some one, you love them
for who they are, not how they look. At 12 years old, they are just approaching 
the age when they will do something about the excess weight, if they want to.

I would be willing to talk to you off line, if you prefer. I just HAD to put in
my 2 cents when I read your entry.

 I'm looking for information on overnight camps in VT or NH 
 for 13 year-old.  He enjoys general activities, particularly
 swimming and fishing.  

 Any pointers to any information would be appreciated.

 Thanks very much.

   The last 2 years, my son has gone to JCC in Lancaster which he really likes.
   However, our group will be moving from MRO to SHR in the beginning of March
   and I'm thinking it's going to be kind of out-of-the-way and difficult 
   (time-wise) for this summer so I'm looking for alternatives........
   anyone in this file know of any summer day-care or day-camp type of place 
   in the vicinity of SHR for my 10-year old ????  The other alternative is
   to relook at places in our hometown, Leominster, so any ideas for places
   there would also be welcome.

First a question - I'm looking for recommendations/experiences on the 
following overnight camps:

	Berea, Bristol NH
	Lochearn camp for Girls, Post Mills VT
	Farnsworth Girl Scout Camp, Thetford Hill VT
	Coniston, New London NH
	Betsy Cox, Pittsford VT

I've been told that you do not need to be enrolled in Girl Scouts in order
to attend GS camps.  I believe the same is true for YMCA camps.  You may
have to pay an additional non-member fee, but this is usually not very 
high.

Now a recommendation - libraries carry all kinds of camp periodicals. These
guides contain lists of camps by state, (day and overnight) along with 
cost, addresses, phone numbers, whether coed or single sex, etc.  Ask
your reference librarian.  These guides are published yearly.  My library
had:

	Frost's Summer Camp Guide
	American Camping Association Guide to Accredited Camps.

    Camp green Erie, Bolton 508-853-1070.  this is a girl scout camp, my
    kids have gone every year since they were in first grade, (now they are
    both in high school, this is the first year they are not going.)
    The camp is excellent, there are a lot of programs to chose from, but
    all programs include a bit of everything (swim lessons, hiking, etc.)
    Becoming 'independent' for a week is great for them too, they each 
    start out not knowing anyone in their unit, (a scarey thing for them)
    but they both always came back with lots of new friends.
    
    You don't have to be a girl scout to get in, but GS's get first
    preference and a $10 discount.  You'll never find a better buy for your
    money, but it may be too late to get in.

    Hi,
    
    Does anyone have any experience with the Pelham NH Recreation Dept.
    Summer Playground program.  I've signed my daughter (7 1/2) up, but
    this is my first experience with a summer playground/camp situation.
    If anyone has sent one of their children to this, could you drop me a
    note ?  I'd be interested in what your opinions are and how the
    days generally are structured.  I've also signed her up for the
    Red Cross swimming lessons, so any feedback on these would be
    appreciated as well.
    
    Thanks,
    Sharon

    My daughter is currently attending day camp at the YMCA camp
    Harrington in Boylston, MA.  The weeks she is not at camp she
    is spending the days with her after-school care provider or on
    vacation with me with one exception, the week of July 24th-28th.
    Her provider will be on vacation that week and its the week 
    before I start my 3-week vacation so taking it off is not an
    option.  I had made some arrangements for her but they fell 
    thru this morning.  I thought about sending her to camp
    but camp Harrington runs in two week sessions and I'd have
    to pay for two weeks even if she is only attending one.
    
    So, I'm looking for daycamp or daycamp options for the week
    of July 24th thru July 28th some where near Boylston, MA or
    between Boylston, Ma and Nashua, NH.
    
    Anyone got any suggestions?

    Is your 12-year old a boy or girl?  There is an excellent B.S.A. camp
    in Gilmanton Iron Works called Hidden Valley Scout Reservation.... They
    have three lakes, a couple of mountains, excellent facilities, good
    staff, meals, and reasonably priced.  Operated by the Daniel Webster
    Boy Scout Council in Manchester, NH.  They also take boys who are not
    scouts and put them in a provisional unit.

    Thanks for the feedback on the camp, my 12 year old is a boy, however,
    I am looking for Lake Winni area because I will be spending time in
    Wolfeboro area and want to have my son experience his first overnite
    camp with me in the immediate area, he is tenative at the moment to

    My daughter went to Pilgrim Day Camp two years ago.  She's enrolled
    to go again this summer.  She is nine.
    
    Sarah had a great time!  It was worth the money.  She got a lot
    of individual attention, there was lots to do, and best of all, as
    Sarah puts it, "no hanging around a tree, when someone has to go to
    the bathroom."
    
    One of the reasons why she didn't like the Y Camp was because whenever
    someone in the group had to go to the bathroom, they had to be escorted
    because it was so far away.  The other kids had to wait with the CIT
    for the counselor to return.
    
    This is Sarah's story, so I'm not sure how often this happened.  I
    was definitely impressed with the ratio of kids to counselors at
    Pilgrim.

The Boys and Girls Club of Marlboro have day camp in
the summer.  It's a combination of typical camp (nature,
swimming, etc.) and field trips to amusment parks and
the beach.

    Also, does anyone have any info on the girls club?  Would you recommend
    it or not?

    Pilgrim Day Camp is on Badger Rd. in Framingham, ma.  Badger Rd is
    off of Salem End Road, near Framingham State College.  It's very

    I'm looking for summer camp/daycare for my two children, ages 4 and 7.
    Ideally, I'd like them in the same place for the summer, but my 4-year
    old can stay in her current daycare spot if necessary.
    
    Please send recommendations for places in the Shrewsbury to Hudson, MA
    area.     I need something that covers most of the summer, minimum
    hours 8:30 to 5:30.
    
    I'm also interested in getting feedback about First Steps Children's
    Center summer camp program in Southboro, MA.
    
    Thanks,

    I am looking for camp for my 11 yr. old daughter for the summer.  On
    Wednesday  I will be going to an info night at Camp Virginia in Bolton,
    MA.  It is a girl scout camp, although my daughter is not a girl scout,
    they open camp to all girls, scout or not.  We live in Acton, Ma and
    this camp has a pick-up and drop-off in Acton and is also very
    reasonably priced, so any references for Camp Virginia, good or bad
    would be greatly appreciated.  The contact for the camp said they fill
    up rapidly so I need to make a decision soon. Any info on the camp
    would be greatly appreciated.
    
    Also any other leads on camps in the Acton, Ma area would be
    appreciated.
    
    Please send mail to PCBUOA::PETREYKO.
