If your child’s ready to spend her summer nights away from home, check out these sleepaway summer camps near New York City.

Brant Lake Dance Camp

Campers receive professional instruction in several dance styles—including ballet, tap, jazz and hip-hop—as well as in sports and fine arts at this girls’ camp that is connected to Brant Lake Camp for boys. Camp runs June 28–July 29; four-week session $7,000. Ages 11 to 16.

Camp DeWolfe

Sailing, swimming, kayaking and climbing are just some of the popular activities at this Christian Episcopal-affiliated camp. Camp runs July 6–Aug 8. Two-week session $995, six-day session $495 (both early bird rates). Ages 7 to 17.

Eden Village Camp

Each bunk at this Jewish camp has its own snack garden where campers can pick fresh fruit and vegetables when hunger strikes between meals. While traditional activities like basketball and pottery(陶器) are offered, unusual specialties like sheep shearing(剪羊毛), fire spinning(火纺) and circus arts truly set this four-year-old camp apart. Camp runs June 27–Aug 12; seven-week session $7,050, four-week session $4,200, three-week session $3,650, one-week session $1,100. Ages 8 to 14.

Iroquois Springs

Iroquois Springs’ comprehensive(综合的) program consists of land and water sports, as well as horseback riding, art, theater and extensive outdoor-adventure activities. Warm staff pay attention to self-respect and individual development over competition. Camp runs June 28–Aug 8; six-week session $9,375, three-week session $5,775 (June 28–July 18 or July 19–Aug 8). Ages 7 to 14.

Timber Lake Camp

Throughout the summer, kids learn the importance of making and keeping friends; they also spend time playing baseball and softball in the on-site Tiger Stadium. The highlight of the summer, though, is the camp’s over-the-top color war. Camp runs June 26–Aug 15, seven-week session $11,800. Ages 7 to 16.
