Changing Things Up This Week

For this week’s Cool Camp, we’re headed east about 50 miles. Why? Because we’re going to show you a very special camp for kids with special needs.  These children are facing serious illnesses and other physical, emotional and life challenges. 
Camp Twin Lakes offers a number of camps that specifically target one demographic.  I think my favorite [...]

Getting Back To Nature…
