Patch Picks: Summer Camps
Our weekly list of the best of... well, everything. We rank 'em, you tell us if we're right.
Spring break is just around the corner, which means - gasp! - summer isn't that far away. This week, Patch is embracing the promise of warmer weather and has created a list of the local summer camps that will keep your kids entertained, educated and (maybe) out of your hair.
