How Many Camps Will Be at the Camp Fair?

We anticipate at least 50 different camps and program vendors to exhibit their programs. There will be a mix of day camps, sleepaway camps, local camps, and camps from out of state showcasing their programs. Each booth will be different. Make sure you visit them all to get a good sense of all the different camp opportunities available for your kids this summer. Here's a list of some of the camps that participated last year. We will post an list of the 2022 participating camps soon. Check back often for the most current camp exhibitor roster.

How Does the Camp Fair Work?

The Camp Fair will take place inside Student Union at CSUN.  Here's how to day will work.
You can park next to the gym and walk right in. Our camp fair concierges will greet you at the Welcome Table and give you a program directory of all the exhibiting camps.  You'll get a free goodie bag to keep all the brochures you'll pick up from all the camp booths.  The goodie bag will be loaded with various informational resources from the camps, games and prizes for the kids, and free raffle tickets to win free camp sessions and other prizes from participating camps.

Once you have your goodie bag, the real fun begins.  Visit the various booths staffed by the different camps and meet and speak with the camp directors and representatives.  Ask all the questions you want to learn more about their programs. Get to know them face-to-face! The impressions you get speaking with all the camp people will help you decide if a given program is right for you. If you "click" with a camp off the bat, great! If not, move on to the next camp. Easy!

Should Kids Come Too?

100% yes! The Camp Fair is as much for kids as it is for parents.  Most of the camps will have games, activities and free giveaways at their booths for the kids.  Attending the Camp Fair is a great opportunity for your potential camper to see what kinds of camps they may want to attend this summer!
