Everyone's staying cool at Camp Kern!
Yes, it’s been really warm…but at Camp Kern, everything’s COOL!
Thanks to our friends at Fox 19 for stopping by, and joining us for this week. Also, all of the interviewed campers are taking part in our Broadcasting add-on program! There’s nothing quite like signing up for camp…and being on TV.
[Dayton, OH, 07/11/11] –
When the school year ends, so do free meals for the millions of children in low-income households who depend on them most. This summer, the YMCA of Greater Dayton is offering free nutritious meals to children in Dayton, Trotwood, West Carrolton, Huber Heights, Xenia and Fairborn communities this summer, thanks to a $85,000 grant from YMCA of the USA (Y-USA) and Walmart to feed more children through the national Summer Food Service Program. The program, run by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), provides free meals to children aged 18 and under while school is out of session. Nationally, more than 300 Ys will provide 7 million meals to 70,000 children this summer.
The Wizards of Harry Potter have come to Camp Kern for the week! Campers are excited to help Harry and his friends defeat the evil Death Eaters and Lord Voldemort this week. Opening campfire began with a “magical” twist when counselor Kurt performed his magic act along with Potter-themed skits and songs. This week looks to be warm, sunny and exceptionally magical!

Ultimate Kern Week is well underway, and the Camp Kern campers have already helped avert disaster on two occasions. The camp was invaded by Aliens on Monday night and saw the place overrun by outlaws interested in Kern’s Goldrush. Without the camper’s bravery and skill, there is really no knowing what could have happened. See pictures and some videos on Smugmug at www.campkern.smugmug.com.
