Julie, Thanks for the great comments. You are right it took many volunteer hours! We were fortunate enough to have the support of a local school district as well as a dedicated committee. West Michigan is a great community for summer camps, as a matter of fact on Big Blue Lake alone there are 5 camps and 7 more on the drive to the facility we used, it is a beautiful area. We 'leased' a summer camp space for a week and contracted with the YMCA camp right next door to provide recreation staff as well as some of the rec activities (horseback riding, high ropes, water mat etc). The experience was astonishing on many different levels. Thanks again, Julie
