Running out of things to do this summer...

It's still early in the summer break, but I still here kids all over saying "I'm bored, what can I do".  This is a pretty common thing in many houses this time of year.  You can always head over to one of the many pools in the area or to a park (remember to put the sunscreen on and load up on the water) or you can check out http://www.kckidsfun.com/ .  You can find both outdoor and indoor activities that are fun for the whole family!  Enjoy the rest of your summer!

Still Need Some More Volunteers!!!

Hope everyone's summer is off to a great start!  School may be out of session but we are still planning for the upcoming year.
