Choose your own adventure! For the fifth consecutive year, St. Thomas School (stthomasschool.org) and ParentMap (parentmap.com) — the Puget Sound’s premier resource for parents and families — have partnered to bring the area’s largest CampFair to Pacific Northwest families.
The free CampFair will run from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 4 at St. Thomas School, 8300 N.E. 12th St., Medina.
Whether parents are looking for summer fun or weeklong entertainment during a school break for their child, this event offers the opportunity to evaluate nearly 100 different camp options, encompassing art, science, nature, drama, out-of-town, and overnight camps.
CampFair offers a chance to compare camps, ask questions, and find out what options are best for your child.
New this year, ParentMap will provide complimentary 10-minute information sessions with an American Camp Association representative to event attendees who pre-register online (parentmap.com/campfair). This is an opportunity for parents to ask questions of a camp specialist, free of charge.
The American Camp Association (formerly known as the American Camping Association) is a community of camp professionals who, for 100 years, have joined together to share knowledge and experience with the community, and to ensure the quality of camp programs.
Because of their diverse 9,000 plus membership and exceptional programming, children and adults have the opportunity to learn powerful lessons in community, character-building, skill development, and healthy living — lessons that can be learned nowhere else. Learn more: acacamps.org
Those who RSVP and attend CampFair will be entered-to-win one free week of traditional Camp Orkila (valued at $949) or Coleman (valued at $679), courtesy of the YMCA. Note: must attend event to be eligible to win.
