Looking for ideas for summer care

The YMCA does summer camps but I don't know about any of the details. Muscle Shoals City Schools has a "summer camp" and my son LOVES it. Every year he asks me if he is going... he will be sad when he is too old to go. They have a field trip every week and go swimming three or four days a week. They do plenty of arts and craft there each week too. And the staff... can't be beat!

I am quite certain you do NOT have to go to school at Muscle Shoals to participate in summer camp... in fact, I know you don't. I forgot I had a friend who brought her kids and they did not live in Muscle Shoals or attend Muscle Shoals. Unless, things have changed since last year that wouldn't be a problem.

The program in MS would be great since I work in MS. Do you have a contact name and number? You can PM me if you don't want to put it out for all to see. Thanks for your help.

Does NWSCC still have its summer program? It is AM only - but great!

In the past, my grandmother would spend the summer at my house and supervise my children. She is no longer able to do that and I am looking for alternatives for my soon to be 10 year old daughter. My husband and I work during the day. Does the YMCA do day camps similar to the current after school program? Help. I haven't used daycare since she was 5 and really don't know what other options are available.

I'm sorry Grandmother is no longer an option...clearly the best option...that said, I believe the Muscle Shoals City School program is the best option. YMCA probably has a good program for older children but I would not want it for a ten year old daughter.

Thanks for the info and PM. I called MS on Friday afternoon. Hopefully I can get her in there. I have registered her for one of the UNA summer programs but it is only 9-12 for one week.

Sheldivr, I so hate that my grandmother is not able to travel and stay with us during the summer. Some of my greatest times were spent with her and I am glad that my children have also had quality time with her. She turned 90 in November!! I hope we have many more years with her but realize that may not be the case.

I have a 9 yr old and 12 yr old and we live in the Killen area. I work part time but usually 5 days a week. If anyone knows of a high-schooler looking to make a few bucks I really need to find someone for the summer. It would only be 4-5 hours a day so it wouldnt eat up their whole day. If anyone knows of anyone please pm me for contact info.
