↘ What to look for

Compare camps on the boring axes: drop-off / pickup window, lunch policy (provided vs. bring), pool access, transportation, and whether weeks are interchangeable (some cap "session lengths" at 4-week blocks). Sticker price isn't the whole picture — extended care, after-3pm care, and lunch can add 20–40% to a tradtional camp's effective cost.
