LONG VALLEY, NJ – Meadowbrook Country Day Camp is inviting all prospective camp families to attend one of two upcoming Open House events, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., on Sunday, Jan. 13 or Saturday, Feb. 2, on site at 73 East Valley Brook Road, in Long Valley.

The camp directors and leadership team will welcome prospective families with an information session, followed by an energetic heated bus tour of the campus while games and crafts are offered to children.

“This is a great way to see Meadowbrook’s beautiful campus and for your children to tour camp,” said Meadowbrook owner Mason Goldberg, who added that the camp becomes a well-known preschool during the winter months.

Meadowbrook is an American Camping Association (ACA) accredited Day Camp located on a 50-acre wooded campus in Long Valley, just outside of Chester. Meadowbrook’s day-camp program serves children ages 3-15, with a travel program for those entering grades 7, 8 and 9. Meadowbook also offers before-care and after-care hours from 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m.

The camp provides a unique focus on building life skills; a Red Cross swim program in heated pools; kid-friendly, healthy lunches served every day (see sample meal schedule photos in photo carousel); boating; mountain biking; sports, ropes courses; and exciting and creative themed special events weekly at camp and on buses.

In addition, Meadowbrook provides door-to-door transportation on air-conditioned mini-buses, serving Morris, Essex, Union, Sussex, Warren, Hunterdon, Middlesex and Somerset counties.

One thing that is unique to Meadowbrook is that all tips are included in tuition and there are no extra costs later on.

In addition, Meadowbrook offers travel camps for children going into grades 7-9 comprising days spent at camp mixed with day trips to places like Dutch Springs Waterpark, Coastal Sports, The Game Vault, Camel Beach, Mountain Creek, Six Flags Great Adventure, Combat Sports, Yestercades, Laser One, Aspen Ice, Rock Quarry Swim Club, Combat Sports, Medieval Times, The Gravity Vault, Broadway Shows, Circle Lanes and more, as well as Community Service Day Trips and Overnights.

Also, Meadowbrook instills campers and staff with a culture of “TIGER” core values (Teamwork, Integrity, Generosity, Enthusiam and Respect).

“We encourage our campers and staff to practice TIGER values during the summer and to take these values with them, after camp has ended, back home and back to school,” said Goldberg, whose young children are campers at Meadowbrook.
