It's *that* time of year again... camp season is right around the corner!
Before you know it, the cold weather will be replaced by warm temps, and thoughts of hiking trails and campfires will fill our children's heads.
You may have already read my post on why I think camp is so important (and if you haven't, feel free to click on the link :), so I thought I'd list some resources to help you find the perfect camp for your child, if you haven't done so already.

Hi ho, hi ho, it's off to camp we go!
I remember going to camp - the freedom and independence, the sheer joy of making my own decisions. It was like heaven on earth for me. While I definitely missed my family, the experience was life-changing. For me, it was the first stepping stone to achieving self-confidence at such a young age.
While the thought of our kids being away from home is scary for parents, the benefits of summer camp are many. Friendships are forged that last a lifetime; self-esteem and confidence flourish. In today's "helicopter parenting" environment, camp can be the defining time when children spread their wings to venture beyond their comfort zones... and sometimes we, as parents, need to venture beyond ours.
Happy trails!
