Summer is here! I dropped off the kids for their last day of school - always a bittersweet moment for a Mom (if you know, you know ;)
As I am planning out summer fun for the family, I thought you'd like this information, too. We are all set up with Junior Lifeguard camps - a great way for kids to fill their earlier time of day with exercise California-style, beach time with friends, games, and valuable life lessons. If you are visiting or staying in town for most of the summer, here are a few things to put on your calendar. I might see you there ;)
