Summer Camp Success

Summer camp is one of my fondest memories of childhood. I went to camp in the mountains of NC for years and just loved it. Yesterday I picked up my 8 year old from his first "sleep-away" camp experience at Camp Harrison. Camp Harrison is a YMCA camp and falls under the umbrella of the YMCA of Greater Charlotte. The camp facilities are amazing (the camp is only 11 years old), and I found the staff to be incredible, too. I was super nervous about the week, but my big boy had a blast!! If you're looking for a camp for your kids that's not too far from home, I highly recommend checking out Camp Harrison as an option for 2016.

It's HOT!!

WSOC-TV

There's just no way around it this time of year...it is H.O.T. in the Queen City. The neighborhood pool feels like a bathtub, the AC can't keep up, and hot just means "cranky" in my house. Here are a few good resources for indoor/at home activities...and we have LOTS of ways to beat the heat indoors in the calendar this week (and some outdoor things, too, for those of you that LOVE the heat). Stay cool y'all!
