Each camper will receive a T-shirt and more fun than they could ever expect. If the weather is bad we have made comfortable accommodations at nearby schools for many indoor activities so as not to interrupt our camping fun. Our program supervisors are West Hartford teachers who have been running this program for the past 26 years and continue to hire and oversee the best and brightest counselors in the area. For families needing only one week of camp, Leisure Services will offer a one-week option, providing space is available. On the Thursday prior to the start of each session, please call Leisure Services at 860-561-7510 to find out if spaces are available. The cost per week will be for Residents $179/Non-Residents $194.
