Bored they won't be. Not only are enjoyable fieldtrips planned each week, but the campers will be able to participate in activities such as art projects, science projects, team-building projects, swimming, writing, singing, community service and FitFactor/sports participation.

"Among the field trips we have planned are visits to the Mulligan's Family Fun Center, Mud Park in Huntington Beach, Natural History Museum and the Science Museum," said Summer Camp Coordinator Rebecca Burns.

"We'll be boogie-boarding at Seal Beach, kayaking at Mother's Beach and participating in the Missoula Children's Theater's production of "The Pied Piper."
