Save your sanity, book summer camp now!

I've been struggling to find a good, comprehensive list of summer camps in the area. I've put together one that covers lots of topics and a variety of locations and hours. I've included some sleepaway camps in the Elementary and above levels. As I come across others, I'll be adding to the list.

If you have suggestions to add, please comment!
