It won?t be long before the words ?summer break? are on the tip of students? tongues as they count down to the last day of school. For most kids, summer means a break from books, and perhaps a chance to focus on their favorite sport or activity. There are camps galore to meet the desires of all children, whether it?s tennis, boating, theater, music or chess.
Just as important, camps give parents a break, too, since they?re not used to having their kids underfoot all day long.
It?s not too early to get your children signed up, since camps are already filling up. Following is a compilation of many camp offerings and the contact information.
