I'm wondering if 10-15 years of age are interested in a summer camp they are taught trades?
If you are interested in what you want learn? Examples would be: quilting, sewing, knitting, crochet, jewelry making, scrapbooking or painting.
That's two different demos as they would say in marketing. 9-11; and 12-15 more or less a year in each direction. We sent our two largest g'children a sleepover camp week this summer. The 11 year old girl, I hated until he took from the original section and the arts and crafts / swim camp, with A / C barracks. The child 13-year-old added the primitive camp. Primitive meaning day trips through the forests and the study of insects, fire-starting, so the first time for both. But I think 15 is a bit too old for anyone. What could be better as counselors at that age. Once you have started with text messages and the opposite sex, and I suppose his 15 years of age are (if you know it or not), the field is not cool unless a counselor. Thus, age 10-13 years will do fine, just be careful what kind of camp. 14-15 year olds are probably going to consider is too young for them. That was our experience. 15 is almost 16, which means driving and independence. And unless you're in a rural area or Mormon (no offense to LDS), which in turn at 14 and 15 years old face. Why not try a camp for older computer or see if they can be counselors for younger children. That makes them the leaders and children 15 years of love!
