Eastern Massachusetts families pondering summer camp options should look no further
than The Trustees, which will offer summer camp options on properties on the North Shore. Registration for most camps opens for Trustees members only on Jan. 11 and then to everyone on Jan. 16.
“We know families are probably just getting back into the rhythm of school after the holidays, but it’s never
too early to register your campers for a Trustees summer camp,” said Julie Bernson, director of learning at
The Trustees. “Our summer camps are immensely popular and always in high demand. We offer a range of
opportunities for campers to have immersive experiences in nature, on our working farms, at the coast, or
at an art museum.”
People who wish to register early and enjoy the $100 per week per camper membership discount may add a
Trustees family membership purchase to their camp registration.
