↘ the meaningful split
Where they actually differ.
Without a single dominant differentiator on price, accreditation, or logistics, the choice usually comes down to two factors most parents underweight at first: fit between your child's friend group and each camp's existing camper population, and the kid's reaction to a 15-minute orientation visit. Both camps in this comparison have published broadly similar credentials; the deciding factor is rarely on the spec sheet.
