There’s no excuse for your kids to be bored this summer. The Pittsburgh area hosts a wide array of day and overnight summer camps for all ages, abilities and interests—and the opportunities are expanding every year.
Below are camps—with description, dates, ages served and contact information—that have been submitted to the Post-Gazette. Also included are camps located in Canada and other regions of the United States that draw youths from Pittsburgh. Costs were not included because they vary based on when applications are submitted (sometimes discounts are available for early submissions). Check also to see if scholarships are available to help cover the costs.
Organizations that have not yet submitted information can still do so by e-mailing it to vlinn@post-gazette.com.
