Is it too early to be thinking about summer camp?

We haven't even been bombarded too early for Christmas yet. So how can it possibly be time to be pressured into thinking about summer camps? Seriously, no pressure, but there is a great camp fair this weekend if you want to get an early start on summer planning and I'll give you just one reason why you should: many camps give discounts if you sign up before December. So if you know you're doing it, why not figure it out now and possibly save some dough?

I don't know a better way to find out in person about lots of summer camps in and around New York City than the New York Family Camp Fair. You can meet the people behind over 40 camps, ask them questions and find out about their programs. Everyone I know who has gone to these fairs always feels like they found a gem.

There will be three free fairs this weekend, one on the Upper West Side, one on the Upper East Side and one Downtown. See more details in our calendar.
