A Grand Camp Experience Can't Post Private Reply

As society faces a major upsurge in the growth of the elderly population, camp directors are thinking creatively about how to connect the older generation to their grandchildren. In the 2005 issue of Camp Magazine, Teresa A. Nicodemus expounds on the growing trend of Grandparent Camps - camps designed to enable children to share various outdoor activities with Grandma and Grandpa.

Beyond making time for bonding - mommy and daddy-free - Grandparent Camps are allowing seniors to rediscover the world through a child's eyes and are forging cross-generational connections across the United States.
