Summer Camp Season is here (well, almost), are You Ready?

Growing up in the 60s and 70s, we didn't do much in the way of summer activities. My folks both worked and aside from the annual one week vacation in North Myrtle Beach, SC, we stayed pretty close to home. Add a week of bible school and chores, we just never did the summer camp thing. Today, kids chores aren't nearly as consuming as they were when we were young (do I  sound like my parent yet?) and finding something to entertain your kids is a job all by itself. Our daughter has attended the Davidson College Lake Camp for the past few years. It is really a great way for kids to get the real outdoor experience in a day-camp environment and is a really well run camp. 

Well, believe it or not, now is the time to be registering your child for 2009 summer camps. It seems there is no shortage of camps in the greater Charlotte area and enrollment is usually limited. Therefore, the reason you need to register now is so you can pick your week and guarantee a slot in your camp of choice. Of course, we still recommend the Davidson College Lake Camp but there are plenty of options in the area. 

So, plan your summer activities and get out and enjoy the LKN area, summertime is calling!
