ANNOUNCING: Summer Camp Expo!

We’ve all been there. Setting our alarms, hitting refresh, praying for fast fingers and sweating that we won’t get our kids registered for their desired summer camps before all the slots fill up.

Registering for summer camps in Missoula is a daunting task. One time, I used two calendars, a notepad, a spreadsheet, and a string board to figure out how to get my two kids into their preferred camps. There’s so much to consider: timing, transportation, cost, experience level, tools, and the number of hours or days the camp covers.

Which is how I knew the 406 Families Summer Camp Guide would be a big hit with parents. We conceived of this guide based on our own frustrations, so we designed it to be as intuitive and easy to use as possible. And we were right. Our guide gets tens of thousands of clicks per year and parents have begun to count on it as the No. 1 resource for summer camps in Western Montana.

Now we’re taking it one step further, organizing our 2023 Summer Camp Expo at the Missoula Public Library on March 11. Join us for this free event — a one-stop-shop chance to learn about all of the best summer camps in Missoula and beyond. With over 25 different camps represented, you are sure to find the perfect fit for your family. Activities, games, and prizes (including a free week of camp!) abound.

Are you a camp organizer? Wanna host a booth? Get in touch here.

We’re looking for sponsors. We expect more than 300 families at this inaugural event. Here’s your chance to reach them.

We can’t wait for summer. And with the ease of our guide, we know you can’t either!
