"Where?" You might ask. At Steve and Kate's Camp.
We're the people who introduced individualized learning in a summer camp setting. Pioneered flexible enrollment and automatic refunds. Integrated a custom food program with locally grown organics. Implemented technology so aggressively that Apple Computer featured us on their website. We've grown from one site to six in the last four years. We continually reinvent the entire concept of summer camp for the modern era. Our philosophy and approach is what has set us apart from other camps since 1980. Take a closer look at what those differences are on our website at www.steveandkate.com.
