I'm not familiar with the Epsilon camp. We've had some challenges with our ds and summer camps -we don't have any gifted-specific camps for kids here until they reach middle-high school, and we're far away from any of the Davidson/CTY/etc camp locations (with a ds who has no desire to do an away-overnight-etc experience). What's worked best for our ds is to find him camps that are outside the traditional school academic subjects, so that he's exposed to new, creative, different ideas. Not necessarily intellectually challenging, but the newness of the material spurs his creative brain to new ideas which keeps him happy and occupied

He's also been doing a bit of online college-course video viewing after school this fall and enjoying that too.
