Young people travel to a location to participate in activities and/or training together over a multi-day period. Participants have opportunities to interact with each other, as well as staff and volunteers, in both structured and unstructured ways because of shared living spaces and daily routines. Camps may integrate peer mentoring or peer educator models by hiring older youth as counselors or instructors.
