Summer Will Be Here Before We Know It

Although it still seems cold outside, summer will be here before we know it and the kids will be looking for something to do.

The Oklahoma Regents for Higher Education offer excellent summer camps as one way to fill the hours with meaningful activity. These camps fill up fast because they are excellent. At the university camps the only thing needed is the transportation to get there and Muskogee Public Schools can even find a way for eager students to get to the science or math camp of their choice and back.

Camps and activities cover such things as speech, drama and debate, science and math, or art and music.
General information about camps can be found here:

Summer will be here before you know it!
