WHAT YA' DOING THIS SUMMER?

Happy Memorial Day Weekend!

I don't know where you are going this summer, but I know where I will be and I hope you'll join me at one of my summer camps! 


June 21-22, Phoenix, Arizona

July 26-27, Albany, NY

We'll sing, dance, do crafts, and make new friends. And, I promise you'll be more excited about starting the new school year because of all the new activities you'll learn.
