Great getaways<br />

For kids, summer camps beckon<br />

By JESSICA KEATING<br />

Summer is just around the corner.<br />

And while youngsters may be dreaming of long hours in front of the television, video<br />

games and days at the local mall, the season also is a great time for children to advance<br />

their skills or discover a new passion.<br />

A number of local day and resident camps offer programs tailored to children with an interest<br />

in the arts, science, sports and more. Looking for something different? Here are a few ideas:<br />

Astrocamp<br />

exploration get the hands-on treatment at this<br />

resident camp in Idyllwild. Camps are suited to<br />

children aged 8 to 16 who want to take their love<br />

of science beyond the classroom setting.<br />
