With snow covering the ground, it's hard to think about anything summer. But if you have little ones, the time is now to sign up for camp.
You know that. Whether you're looking for a place to help develop character, learn new life skills or just make new friends, the problem is finding just the right one among the many traditional and specialized offerings. Just as searching for the right college will be later, this can seem a daunting task at first.
For years, traditional camps that offer variety of activities were the only options. But these days focusing on one activity such as dance, basketball, cooking or farming is becoming the norm.
A more detailed listing can be found at http://www.mysummercamps.com/camps/georgia, but this sampling from metro Atlanta provides a good idea of the variety available and the deadlines approaching.
