Question
Hey I'm nick and I've been looking for a Marines military kids summer camp for ages 13+ in new jersey my question is. is there one

Answer
Nick,
There's a ton of them in NJ (140 to be exact#.  What kind are you looking for?  There's some summer camps held by the USMC for kids who may be interested in joining, and there's some USMC camps for troubled kids who need discipline, some for girls, some for poor kids, some for troubled kids, some for boys only, some for  boys & girls, etc.

Naturally, a lot of them are around Ft. Dix.  Write back and tell me what kind you're looking for and what area of NJ is best for you and I'll send you the list.

New Jersey #NJ) military camps have the objective to give teenagers personality development traits so they become ready to face the outer world.  Teens can make new friends and exchange their ideas and thoughts with each other.

I've heard great things about these camps.

Waiting to hear from you,

Colonel H
