▌ Editor's read The provided URL leads to Kings Landing, a historical settlement in New Brunswick, Canada, not a camp named 'Family Kin' in the US. The camp program offered is called 'Kings Landing Summer Camp' and is an overnight camp for children aged 8-14. The website details various activities including historical crafts, outdoor games, and farm chores, emphasizing an immersive historical experience. There is no mention of ACA accreditation, state licensing, or background check policies on the camp's webpage. The camp appears to be operated by Kings Landing itself, which is a historical site. The cost per week is listed as $550 CAD.
Who thrives here Ages 13–15
Family Kin serves high-school campers, which means the program is competing against summer jobs, college visits, internships, and residential overnight options. The case for a day camp at this age is usually a CIT (counselor-in-training) track, deep specialization in overnight/sleepaway, or a portfolio item parents and kids both value. Programs that don't articulate one of those three usually lose this age band by 9th grade.

Frequently asked about Family Kin
- What ages does Family Kin accept?
- Family Kin is open to children ages 13–15. Camps publish their own age cutoffs, and some run mixed-age groups internally; check the registration page for that summer's grouping if your child sits at a boundary.
- How much does Family Kin cost?
- Family Kin publishes $550/week for the standard session. Final cost depends on session length, sibling discounts, and whether extended care is added on.
- What are Family Kin's hours?
- Family Kin runs 24-hour residential. If those hours don't quite cover your work day, check whether extended care or early drop-off is offered separately.
- Does Family Kin provide lunch?
- Family Kin does not include lunch — campers bring their own. Most day camps without provided lunch are nut-free or nut-aware, so check the allergy policy before packing. Frozen water bottles double as ice packs and drinks; insulated lunch boxes hold below 40°F for about four hours.
