    So, summer is almost here and you are starting to look for a summer program for your kids, there are many options out there but you do not know where to start. That is why we are bringing all the options to one place for you! We will be hosting the 2015 Summer Camp + FUN Fair  on Saturday, May 2 from 10 am to 1 pm.

    Some of you have asked us what a Camp Fair is? Camp fairs are free events that take place on weekends and bring dozens of camps straight to us, allowing us to have one-on-one conversations with many camp directors all within a few hours of time.  Camp fairs give us a chance to explore interests and also provide us with the opportunity to ask key questions about different summer programs. Our 2015 Summer Camp + FUN Fair will be a welcome Summer event – presenting other summer programs as well, such as after school activities and other entertainment options as a family.

    For us moms and dads searching for a camp or any summer activities, the fair will be a great way to find out what a program is really like before registering our children.

    At the event we will be providing a guide with contact info and descriptions of every program out there. But because we know you are getting curious and perhaps anxious about what is out there, we are including below a list of top camps of which some will be present at the Fair. Bring your family for a day of fun, explore options and perhaps register your kids on site!
