Traditional Summer Camp
$1500-$15,000+
Summer camp is awesome. Our founder believes in summer camps, and has run several over the years.
The great ones are expensive, and the experience does not vary significantly from year to year.
There are often hidden fees for "extra" programs, camp store, transportation, etc.
Summer Job
$One Irreplaceable summer of youth
Employers are desperate for help, and they will hire your child for the summer, probably above minimum wage. Your child will gain job skills, a few thousand dollars, and work experience.
All it will cost is a summer of their youth that they will never get back. They've got 50 years, more or less, to be in the working world, there's no rush. ​
