How can you spend your summer vacation, if you're 12 to 15: Go to ''American Idol'' camp. Not that gay kids haven’t been flocking to “theater camp” since the birth of the American Musical, but…

Idol Camp is performing arts summer camp for kids who crave more than kayaking and hiking. It’s opening in Massachusetts this summer.

The camp's limited enrollment isn't audition-based and won't guarantee a spot on ''American Idol'' or provide any advantage in the Fox series' audition process, a spokesman said. The TV show's age limit is 16 to 28.

Would-be campers should demonstrate a passion for the arts and a desire to perform, a release said. Four sessions described as ''noncompetitive'' are planned this summer for July and August.

But they don’t let gay people compete on “American Idol.” Is this some kind of plan to give the gays crumbs while still keeping them off the hit show?

The camp's cost is $2,900 per student for 10 days and includes room, board, classes and souvenirs. According to FremantleMedia and 19 Entertainment, a ''certain percentage'' of students will be eligible for full scholarships based on financial need.
