2020 Summer Camp
Guide W

ith each new milestone that our children reach comes the
need for information to guide them (and us) through this
stage. This is particularly true when our children are old enough
to attend summer camp. How do we know which camp is right for
them? In an education-centered community like ours, there can
be a lot of options — where do we even get started? Right here,
actually, with these listings. Read about these camps, what they
offer and the ages they serve. Then visit their websites to learn
more. On our website, WashingtonFamily.com, you can find even
more listings to help you in your search. Be sure to check back on
our website and in our magazine in upcoming months for more
stories and helpful tips. Good luck! Here’s to a great summer.
