Why Kids Need Summer Camp
Camp is a building block and a bridge to the successful development of our children. It may cost money, but summer camp is one of the greatest gifts families can give their kids. Camps provide a positive community for kids to practice their independence, gain personal confidence, learn new skills, and participate in the adventuresome outdoors. Kids gain a feeling of connectedness and a belief in their ability to make decisions. We will have a panel discussion with experienced camp staff, parents, and kids, plus lots of time for questions.

Get a RightStart in Fractions!
Children often have difficulty with fractions because they see only the parts of the fraction, and not the whole. Anyone, age 6 and up, can understand fractions with the linear model. This fraction review will give you confidence in teaching (or re-teaching) this important topic. You will also learn a few fraction card games. Constance Cotter, RightStart Mathematics
