Summer Camp Guide

Summer is just around the corner. Its long, lazy days can be the stuff childhood memories are made of. Or they can be a wad of worry for working parents or those who just can't bear to hear more whining about boredom.

Plenty of Rogue Valley organizations offer camps to keep the kids safe and busy through the season. The Mail Tribune has compiled this list of camps and welcomes information from other camp organizers. Groups that want to be included in the guide can e-mail information about the organization and activities to jwurth@mailtribune.com.
