Two East Coast Camps Attending the L.A. Camp Fair in Calabasas

Parents and kids looking for a summer camp in Los Angeles will be thrilled with the selection of so many amazing program opportunities at the upcoming camp fair in Calabasas on Sunday, April 22.

But something that might surprise you is that even though the camp fair will be loaded with L.A. camps, there will be several other programs exhibiting from out of town.

In fact two camps from the east coast are even attending the L.A. Calabasas camp fair. So if you're considering sending your child to an overnight camp this summer, one of these cross-country programs might interest you.

Camp Wekeela

Both of the east coast programs caught our eye because they offer kids the quintessential traditional camp overnight summer camp experience. Today we wanted to highlight one of these programs, Camp Wekeela, so you learn more about it.

Camp Wekeela is a premiere summer camp on a bucolic setting in the beautiful state of Maine. The camp is located on pristine Little Bear Pond in Harford, ME.

For almost 100 years, Camp Wekeela's goal has been to provide a fun, exciting summer camp experience that helps children discover new talents and interests, build self-confidence and esteem, and give them the opportunity to establish lifelong friendships.

The camp offers leading-edge activity programming that includes water-sports, land sports, creative, performing and culinary arts as well as out-of-camp excursions. 

Programs are tailored to meet campers' needs and kids are encouraged to make choices, take risks and accept new challenges.

The camp is accredited by the American Camp Association and meals nut and gluten-free.

New electronics are permitted at Camp Wekeela.
