Camp Expo 2011 coming to Plainview

On March 30, 2011 Long Island's Camp Expo will be coming to Plainview at Four Points by Sheraton.

It's not too early to be thinking about for the kids and an assortment of camp options will be on display in Plainview on March 30.

Thalia Stamatelos, the founder of started Camp Expo after spending countless hours trying to research camps and hours visiting their locations. She also found shopping mall camp expos to be noisy, chaotic and not very helpful in making decisions regarding the best place to send her child.

Camp Expo was then created to bring camp directors together in one place and allow busy working moms a chance to interview them and learn about their camps in a better environment, she said. Moms can meet and talk with other moms who are also looking for the best camp. It is a chance to speak to experts and choose the right place to send your children.
