“Camp Kent is more fun than visiting Disney World,” Bianca, then 10, declared the last day of Kent Park and Recreation’s summer day camp in Kent, Conn.
What is it about our day camp that evokes such a feeling in a town youngster? Located on a 100-acre tract of land in rural northwestern Connecticut, the camp offers simple fun where children can play and create in a safe environment.
Camp Kent is an eight-week summer program that runs Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.; it accepts only 24 youngsters each week. The camp is run by a director and two counselors with oversight from the park and recreation director.
