My child is 5 years old. Which Summer Camp would be best for him; the Little Folks Camp for ages 3-5 or the School-age Camp for ages 5-11?
The most important differences a parent may want to consider when choosing which camp to enroll their 5 year old in is Swimming vs No Swimming at our locations with a pool or lake. The children in the Little Folks Camps (ages 3-5) use the community water park or do a water activity most afternoons depending on the camp location, but do not use the full-size* swimming pools, and do not leave site except to walk to a nearby playground**. The Summer School-age Campers swim each day and may go on field trips on Thursdays depending on camp location. * Little Folks Campers may use a “baby pool” if one is available at the Camp Site. ** Talega Campers regularly walk to Talega Park at the top of the Club’s parking lot. Ladera Little Folks Campers at Oak Knoll occasionally walk to the neighborhood park approximately 2 blocks away, along the walking path. They only cross one small residential street.
