Goldstar Plus
An advanced traditional day camp for older campers with diverse recreational activities.
▌ Editor's read The Goldstar Plus camp is operated by the Town of Huntington Parks and Recreation Department, indicating it is a municipal program. The website, huntingtonny.gov, loads successfully and provides information about the camp. It is a day camp for children entering grades 1-6, running for six weeks from July 8th to August 16th, 2024. The camp offers a variety of activities such as sports, arts and crafts, games, and special events. There is no mention of ACA accreditation on the website, nor is it listed in the ACA directory. The site does not provide information on staff-to-camper ratios or explicit details about staff background checks. Google reviews for "Goldstar Plus" are not readily available, likely due to its municipal program nature. The registration fee is $1,100 for residents and $1,320 for non-residents, with a $50 non-refundable deposit. Social media handles specific to the Goldstar Plus camp were not found, though the Town of Huntington Parks and Recreation likely has general social media presence.

Who thrives here Ages 13–15
Goldstar Plus 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 traditional day camp, 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.
