camp suggestions? price info from BTDT?
This was the first year I returned to work at a somewhat more steady schedule. I work 9-3. (because DD started Kindegarten this year. Now, Im not sure what to do for the summer. I am a single Mom and money is not exactly flying around over here. Curious if anyone knows of some camps in my area (Ronkonkoma...any surrounding areas in Eastern-mid suffolk) that are good and how much they get for the summer program? I have heard a few prices for the summer thrown around and they were crazy! help?

I worked at Hidden Pond in Hauppauge back in 2003 (I think) ...
I don't know how much exactly they were, but the kids did have a good time ( and they got to ice-skate which was a nice bonus)
It is also (or was at least) overseen by 2 of my former high-school teachers

Check into the Islip Town Camp to see if they still have openings. They have a few around, Ronkonkoma, Sayville, Bohemia.
8 weeks cost me $1,055 for one child. Full day 8:15-5:45
