Looking for summer camps? Try New Jersey’s county park systems

The weather may still be cool, but New Jersey's summer camps are in full swing and enrolling for the summer. And after two years of limitations, many facilities are welcoming a mostly normal summer season.

With that said, camps are filling up quickly all over New Jersey, so it's important to move fast before sessions fill to capacity. As a father myself, I can tell you from researching different locations that this summer is most likely going to be a sell-out.

Recently, I received a magazine in the mail from our county park system. The primary focus was on summer camps for the kids, and I thought, what a fantastic idea for them to enjoy.
