New York's camps here run from Adirondack Park lake country to the New York City area, covering both residential and day formats. The Adirondack programs follow a classic camp mold — canoeing, sailing, climbing walls, archery and campfires — while the city-area options include specialized day and online formats alongside more traditional sleepaway camps near Roslyn.
It's a wider spread than many states offer: families can choose a rustic lakeside session in the mountains or a program closer to home in and around New York City.
