Summer Camps for ages 10–11 in New York.
177 camps in New York accept ages 10–11. Median week: $400; range $80–$849.
Tween-targeted summer camps in New York skew either deeper-specialty (the kid has been doing this thing since age 7 and now wants the intensive version) or harder-fun (high-adrenaline activities the under-10 set can't do). The middle is harder to find than parents expect — there's a real "I outgrew the day camp but I'm not ready for sleepaway" gap.

↘ What to look for
If the kid has a specialty, lean into it — a third year of ballet camp at the same studio is more useful than a generic week. If they don't, prioritize camps that mix activities the kid hasn't tried (rock climbing, surfing, woodshop, coding) over more of the same. Watch for camps that herd 10–11s into the same groups as 6-year-olds; that's a tell.
