Camp fairs are a great way to find summer camp opportunities for your St. Louis kids. All the camp representatives gather in one place so you can ask questions and take home camp literature.
But hey, you're a parent and that means your weekends are packed with activities, so it's not always possible to make those once-per-year Saturday or Sunday fairs.
That's why Abra Kid Abra, St. Louis Kids Magazine and stlcamps.com are bringing the camp fairs to you.
If you work at a major St. Louis corporation, chances are there will be a camp fair at your workplace in the coming weeks. Fairs are scheduled at Monsanto, Wells Fargo Advisors, Stifel, Centene, RGA, Watlow, Metropolitan Life and six additional large St. Louis employers between February 16 and March 29.
Fairs will be held primary during lunch hours, so it will be easy and convenient for you to check out camps offered by the Saint Louis Science Center, Challenger Learning Center, Vetta Sports, Camp Weloki, Saint Louis Zoo, JCC, Dayspring School of the Arts, COCA, YMCA and more.
In addition to getting some summer planning done during your lunch break, many of the camps will be offering freebies, prizes, raffles and other goodies. It's the ultimate in parental multi-tasking.
