Summer Camps That Provide Lunch for Campers on Long Island

We all know getting out the door in the morning during the school year takes a lot of coordinating, with backpacks, briefcases, and after-school activity gear—and adding a brownbag lunch to the morning chaos is at the bottom of some of our lists. And that chaos doesn’t go away in the summer when we’re trying to get the kids out the door for summer camp, so why not look for a summer day camp on Long Island that offers lunch options every day for campers? We’ve compiled a list of summer camps in Nassau and Suffolk counties that offer lunch options, including camps located in Old Westbury, Manorhaven, New Hyde Park, Roslyn Heights, Mill Neck, Brookville, Hicksville, Farmingdale, Patchogue, Mount Sinai, Smithtown, Middle Island, Medford, Miller Place, and St. James.
