Our Summer Camp Placement Service

A Program For Every Child
Summer camps offer something for everyone. Many parents make the mistake of either sending their child to a camp "where their friend goes," or "makes a full-time career of researching a camp or teen program for their child." This is where
Summer Camp & Trip Resources® can relieve the burden and stress of the decision process.
Individualized Camp Referrals
We specialize in matching the particular needs of each child with the appropriate summer program. Our mission is to provide the child with a memorable experience by offering expert guidance in making the best choice for the entire family.
We're Famous For Our Follow-Up
Our job at
Summer Camp & Trip Resources® doesn't end once a child has been placed. We're available for all of our clients at all times. When we assist a family with a "match," we follow that camper or student through the entire process - from arranging personal interviews with the program directors right through to visiting the child at camp during the summer. We also have a follow-up meeting after the child returns home from the summer experience to evaluate the success of the placement.
