There are several ways to find the right Summer Kids Camps. One of the best is word of mouth, it lets you really find out what campers and parents alike have to say about the summer camp. Next try the internet, Many websites these days have video and wonderful pictures. Libraries and other areas have camp guides that might list loads of information on summer kids camps. You can also look locally at school, college bulletin boards, and sports magazines often carry advertisements for these types of programs.

Is you child involved in any other out of school activities? If so ask your child's coach or scout leader. Sometimes sports Varsity coaches run high school or college level sports camps that they recommend to their players.

Kid's Summer Camps are well-established and have been in business for many years. Basic questions to ask the directors include health and safety, living accommodations, and much more. Here is a list to start with:

* How long has the camp been in business? Has its location changed? Why?

* What is the daily schedule actually like? How much time do they get at an activity?

* Who are the Counselors? What is their training? Ask how many of the staff is returning from previous seasons.

* What is the ratio of instructors to campers? How are the groups organized? Is there room for movement to a higher skill level after camp begins?

* How many campers come to camp per session? Is it big or small? How many return from the previous year?

* Does the camp work on not only skills but personal development? Will the camp provide a written evaluation at the end?

* What are the ages of the campers who attend? Ask for the number of campers enrolled in your child's age group.

*What is the level of play? Does the camp accept players at all skill levels or require a tryout? How is the skill level determined? How many campers are enrolled at your child's level?

Like any other activity session you might enter your child in , its best to get references. If you don't know any families who have used this particular summer kids camp, then ask the director for a list, be sure you call the families, you will want to know:

* Why did they pick this program?

* What did their camper like and dislike about the program?

* What did the parents think of the supervision and the directors?

* Did the camper's skills noticeably improve?
