Camp | New Jersey Summer sports camp

New Jersey summer camp is a supervised program for children and/or teenagers conducted during the summer months. Children and adolescents who attend summer camp are known as campers. The traditional view of a New Jersey summer camp as a woodsy place with hiking, canoeing, and campfires is evolving, with greater acceptance of newer summer camps that offer a wide variety of specialized activities. For example, there are New Jersey camps for the performing arts, rock music, magic, computers, children with special needs, and weight loss. There are also religiously-affiliated New Jersey summer camps, such as those run by Evangelical Christian groups. The primary purpose of many camps is educational or cultural development. A New Jersey summer camp environment may allow children to take healthy risks in a safe and nurturing environment.
