Summer Fun Begins This Week!!

Greetings!
Although we had to limit our modified summer program to just our little ones this year due to COVID-19, our first day of camp on June 1st proved to be a successful kick-off for a fun-filled summer for our 6-12 year olds. Finally, these little munchkins are able to get out of their homes and enjoy some well planned learn and play together. The below photos will validate the overwhelming excitement the kids and staff felt on our opening day. Also, we are proud to say our staff was well prepared to welcome them back following all the necessary precautions per CDC and DCF guidelines. 
Regards,
