TYPES OF SUMMER CAMP
The majority of CIEE placements are in traditional camps—which can be co-ed or serve only female or male campers—where many different activities are offered, from arts and crafts to archery.
For many families, it’s a long-held tradition for children to attend the same summer camp their siblings, parents, or even grandparents did when they were young, creating a unique and close community atmosphere.
GIRL SCOUT:
These camps only serve female campers and are often run in one- to two-week sessions throughout the course of the summer.
SPECIALTY:
These camps focus on a sport or activity like horseback riding, sailing, or theater. Specialty camps may also serve specific populations such as campers who have ADHD or have suffered a loss.
SPECIAL NEEDS:
These camps serve campers with one or more disabilities including those who are, emotionally, mentally, or physically disabled. Specialty needs camps often offer the most challenging camp experience, yet can be the most rewarding.
