Hi Sylvia, I just wanted to let you know that this is Carly’s first week at CampCo and she is LOVING IT!!!!!!!!! She has asked us to pick her up later and later every day! Her dad picks her up by 3:30 and on Tuesday she said how about 4:00, yesterday it was 5:00, and today her request was 6:00! She’s made a new friend and is having so much fun! She loves the Staff! It looks like I need to register her for August now (she was going to go to TLC for those 3 weeks) since she is having such a great time and doesn’t want to be anywhere else! Thank you so much for all you do to make our kids happy!
