If you’re thinking of your OE, or you have an over-stayer (otherwise known as a grown-up child) in your home who you’d like to send on one, IEP’s Summer Camp USA is a hugely rewarding, hassle free option with lots of additional benefits.

Renowned for having a superior tailored service that carefully matches applicant’s personalities and interests with suitable camps in America, Summer Camp USA is also the number one for summer camp earning potential – up to US$500 more in your pocket.

“As an organisation we visit the camps each summer and our recruits always tell us how valued and supported they feel to have us come and visit them. They know that there is always someone looking out for their interests every step of the way,” says Bex Gilchrist, IEP director.

For applications prior to 31 December 2011 you’ll also go into the draw to win a FREE 7-Day Freedom Trail tour from Trek America valued at NZ$975.

“These tours are awesome,” says Bex. “Our campers often use up the extra 30-day stay taking a Trek America tour and meeting new friends – they also usually end up with lots of places around the world to stay after meeting new people at the camps.”

Summer Camp USA have partnered with a variety of camps across America who provide a diverse range of activities for campers. Choose from sports like swimming, kayaking, waterskiing, tennis or gymnastics right through to adventure activities such as rock climbing, mountain biking, abseiling and archery as well as arts & crafts activities such as jewellery making, ceramics and circus arts, based in cities all over America.

“Our campers find new skills they never knew they had, as well as developing skills for work later on – Summer Camp USA is also a great thing to have on your CV and the leadership skills learnt will help in every area of life,” explains Bex.

IEP have over 40 years experience in placing 1000's of people at camps in America and provide personal support to ensure you’re placed at the most suitable camp for you.

If you’re still not sure, go to www.iep.org.nz/participantprofiles to read what others have to say. Hannah Grainger of Motueka writes: "Go for it as you not only learn a great variety of skills, not only does it build your character but you make so many friends from all over the world and it can open up so many other doors to your future. Really is an experience of a lifetime."
