It was no contest. CYJ won hands down. Now they both go there. WITH NANCY GURWIN for Ayes 8-12 AND 13-17 For further information, and a detailed brochure about camp contact: DAVID KOVSKY...

They know they have been able to get along with children outside the fam- ily. They've taken a real step toward growing up." According to Dr. Leon Rosenberg of Johns Hopkins University, camp is often the place where children experi- ence situations for the first time. "Camp may be the first place a child learns to swim. It broadens his horizons," Dr. Rosenberg says. "The child gets exposure to things he doesn't normally have a chance to get a crack at. Shooting a bow and arrow or doing leather work in arts and crafts are good things to be exposed to. He may decide he never wants to touch another leather Il craft, but at least he got a crack at it." Bruce Muchnick puts it another way. Camp, he says, "stimulates the flow of creative juices in a setting that allows kids I • to get in touch with a sense of life that is larg- er than themselves." Camp provides multi- ple opportunities: to enjoy the outdoors, to gain a greater apprecia- tion and respect for the environment, to find sat- isfaction through com- panionship with other children and adults, and to learn skills that - enhance a child's self- reliance and indepen- dence. Nothing spans the breadth of the nation like summer camps, says the American Camping Association's Ruth Lister. They range from 100 percent scholarship to the very exclusive and expensive stays. There are single-sex and co-ed, traditional and specialty camps. Single sex and co-ed camps have their own pluses and minuses, say the experts.
