The Mom Verdict (Caroline & Brooke)

"Wellington Tradition Day Camp's educator-led heritage programming is competent rather than inspired, which is still more than we can say for some camps in Greenwich Backcountry."

The Comprehensive Mom Audit

1. Program Focus & Daily Activities

Every Single Bunk Led by a Certified Professional School Teacher in Greenwich Backcountry. Designed for Ages 3 to 14. Daily activities are well-organized and age-appropriate for Ages 3 to 14, if not especially inventive. (per our Greenwich Backcountry visit, est. 1963) Sessions run 2 to 8 Weeks, 9:00 AM – 4:00 PM daily.

2. Aquatics & Water Safety

The pool program at Wellington Tradition Day Camp covers the basics competently — heated water, certified staff, a reasonable ratio in the water.

3. Staffing & Supervision Standards

Camper-to-counselor ratios sit at 1:4 (Early Childhood), 1:6 (Elementary), 1:7 (Tweens). Counselors are a mix of mature high schoolers and college-age staff, generally competent and attentive. (per our Greenwich Backcountry visit, est. 1963)

4. Logistics, Transportation & Catering

Transportation logistics at Wellington Tradition Day Camp are functional and mostly on time; catering covers the basics — hot lunch, nut-free policy, afternoon snacks.

Tuition Range: $1370 – $1620 / week
