Why attend? 

  • NJ Camp Fairs are FREE to the public. We have been hosting our annual fairs for the past 30+ years and it is our intention to continue to provide this valuable service to give you high quality interactions with many camps.

  • Your only opportunity to meet so many camp directors and staff face to face, ask questions, pick up materials.

  • Be the first to hear about promotions, open houses, camp tours.  

  • Meet a host of camps under one roof. We're welcoming day camps, sleepaway camps, special interest camps in NJ, and surrounding Tri-state area (PA, CT, NY). 

  • It's a short 3 hours of your afternoon, and the best way to research and learn quickly. All fairs are from 12-3pm. 

  • Attend more than one fair because different camps will be at each fair. We host around 6-7 fairs located at convenient locations throughout Northern and Central New Jersey. 

  • BRING YOUR KIDS (especially your tweens and teens) and let them make a choice!  They can watch videos, look at the photos and lists of activities, and let them ask questions. 

  • JOB Opportunity for camp counselors as many camp directors look to hire during these fairs.

PARENTS MUST RSVP here
