Great Barringtonn, MA (prHWY.com) March 27, 2013 - Camp Half Moon, located in the Berkshire Hills of Western Massachusetts, offers a Traditional Sleepover Camp experience as well as a day camp program for local campers ages 3-15. The camp in the Berkshires is an engaging and rewarding experience for children ages 6-16. The essence of this experience enhances a child's self esteem, independence and social values.

Sleep away camp provides a wonderful summer of fun and new experiences as well as beautiful memories that will last a lifetime. Sending your child to Camp Half Moon would provide them with that, and so much more. Campers learn independence as well as temwork, they practice their talents as well as discover new ones, and most imortantly, camp helps kids to become the very best person that they can be.

For many children and teenagers, the first time they are out in the world on their own is college. This can be a very trying experience. It is important that kids are able to adapt to an environment without the safety nets of family and home, before they are forced to. Independence in the earlier stages of life will make real world transition much smoother. Camp Half Moon provides campers with just this. The camp provides food, housing and organized activities, but the surroundings are new and stimulating for the kids. They learn to listen and look for direction on their own. They also must do basic tasks like brushing their teeth without reminders from parents. The kids return home prepared to handle more responsibility on their own.

Sleepaway camp is also beneficial in that it teaches kids social skills, which in turn boosts self-esteem. At camp, campers are isolated from their everyday friends and family, and must therefore learn to communicate with complete strangers. The deepest and longest lasting friendships are derived from this kind of relationship, the kind of relationships that Camp Half Moon provides for children.

Allowing a child to go to sleepaway camp is one of the biggest and most beneficial choices a parent can make. Camp Half Moon provides children with with all of the things they need to learm, mature, and have the summer of a liftime.
