Find Your Child a Summer Camp Near You

Summer will soon be here, and now is a good time to find fun activities in the area to help keep your kids entertained. Registration has started for summer camps in and around L.A. County.

A few weeks ago, Patch asked for help identifying local summer camps, and the response was overwhelming. Readers named more than 100 places, and the list is still growing.

To view our summer camp information, click any of the points on the above map. You can also use the drop-down menu just below the map to see summer activities in a specific city. To see information for all summer camps in Los Angeles County, select "All Cities" and click the search button.

Be sure to let us know if there are any camps we missed by submitting them to the summer camps form. You can also leave a comment below to let us know you've done so. We will be sure to add your submission to the list.
