We've heard from many camp directors in the past few weeks who are want to know if the L.A. Camp Fair dates for 2018 have been set yet.
Many camps will be traveling from out of town to exhibit at L.A. Camp Fair 2018, so obviously these folks need to make their travel plans! L.A. Summer Camps.com is only an official sponsor of the L.A. Camp Fair, not the actual promoter, so we don't have the full details yet from the decision-makers putting on the expo. As soon as we have concrete details, we'll let you know. But from our current understanding, we believe the tentative (and it's appears more firm than tentative), Camp Fair #1 will be March 10 or 11 in West L.A. or Beverly Hills, and Camp Fair #2 will be April 22 in Calabasas. There may even an additional (third) camp fair added, possibly at Cal Lutheran University in the Conejo Valley. This decision will be make shortly. Meanwhile, we know the folks at Camp Fair 2018 are working hard to firm everything up for you. Don't be surprised to see definite details -- including a Camp Fair Registration Form so camps can sign up -- posted and available for you this weekend.
