Every year, the folks at Baristanet perform the arduous and amazing task of amassing a list of camps for little kids, big kids and sleepaways for all of Essex County and beyond.
Included in their online guides are many Maplewood and South Orange camps as well as others that are local favorites.
The editors also promise to continually update the guides. So, if you know of a great camp that’s not listed, send them an email.
