At Camp Nashoba North, it's not out of the ordinary to have a child dropped off by chartered plane or to have an ambassador's son or daughter in attendance. Nashoba, which welcomes over 300 kids from across the U.S. and from overseas, offers a modern twist on the traditional Northeastern sleep-away camp, explains Sarah Seaward, the camp's co-owner and director.
Besides offering standard activities like basketball and waterskiing, Nashoba boasts all-weather tennis courts, a recording studio where musically ambitious kids can record a CD, and a 300-seat outdoor theater.
