Last minute getaway

Anyone have any ideas for a last minute getaway with the kids before school starts in September? Travel is by car, no more than 6 hours away (from Queens, NY). Any ideas will be helpful! Thank you in advance!

Hershey Park!! We went last weekend with dh's daughter (who is 8) and we had a blast! We also went to Indian Echo Caverns which is just a few minutes away from the park. We were there for 3 days.

Dorney Park or Hershey Park in PA! That's where we just went last weekend!

ETA: Maybe camping? There's a great one on the Delaware River called Jerry's Three River Campground. You can go canoeing and everything there!

I second the Hersehy park trip, great place, you can do a day at chocolate world and the amusement park, then a second day just at the water park. You can either go to echo caverns, or we are thinking of going to gettysburg next time we go. Have Fun!

Re: Last minute getaway

Thank you for all the wonderful ideas! I think we've decided to spend a few days in Philadelphia. We'll do some historical sight seeing, the aquarium in Camden, museums, and plenty of eating!
