Why School Camps Should NOT Be Banned



School camps should not be banned because kids these days need good outdoor experience and sometimes they can conquer fears. Parents say it might be expensive but it is for a good cause.

Parents have been complaining about how much camps cost, well I agree with some prices but what were talking here is school camps. To my point of view the costs of some are ridiculous, Overnight camps cost around $1000.00 per week. School camps cost a little over $200 which is a amazing price range and is for a good cause.

Lots of kids, parents, grandparents and so on have all been to a camp before. This was quoted by a Former Boy Scout,"What I like about camping is you can get really dirty. Either your'e all by yourself , so no one else sees you, or everyone your with is just as dirty as you are so nobody cares." If camps get closed down the future generations won't get the adventure of a life time.

Camps are generally known to bring children together to form strong bonds and create the opportunity of a lifelong skill, Teamwork. Camps provide different activities which allows us children to demonstrate our strengths that the teachers have never seen before. TEAM is the abreviation of Together Everyone Achieves More, it applies to everyone throughout life.

Most children countdown sleeps until their school camps which show adults how excited they are. If school camps end, their will be a whole lot of dissapointment around the country. Camps certainly changes our lifes for the better!
