Summer Camp

I have been debating about whether to place my 4 year old in two different summer camps this summer.  I found a summer camp for him that is half-day during the month of June near my house. It only lasts for the month of June. In July, I would like to place him in a two week camp at the school that I hope he will attend for elementary.  He also may be starting a new pre-k program in the fall. Is this too much transition for him at one time? My concern is about the two different summer camps and the new school in the fall...

Is your son outgoing? How quickly does he adapt to new environments? Is he shy? Is he comfort

How does LO generally do with transitions?  I have one that would ask me "Is that all I get to do?"  One that is a homebody and would prefer to stay home but would humor me if she can earn computer time, and one who would take the whole two week
