Colleen, the kids get to spend a week of doing typical summer camp activities. Located at Lake Francis Resort in the foothills. Hiking, biking, water activites, arts & crafts, campfires and the like. Geoff, sorry. This was written as a press release so I posted it here as such. I guess I could have written it in first person for this forum. As for updates, that will be reserved for the sponsors of the campaign. As a sponsor, you would receive a monthly newsletter, via email, with a recap of my adventures along with other tidbits.

The "daunting" refers to the fact the to the very young, a public library can be intimidating. Not that they are set up that way, but they can be a bit of a challenge for the little ones.
