If you’re looking for a fun camp for your kids on days school is out, but you’re at work, you’re in luck! There are some great choices for those one-day holidays and also the longer breaks.

Many school districts are off for Rosh Hashanah, and others are off in October for Columbus Day and fall break. Some of these camps even offer programs for Teacher In-Service Days and Snow Days!
