BRATTLEBORO — Youth Services will host its Annual Summer Camp Fair on Friday, April 6, on Gallery Walk Night, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m., at the River Garden in downtown Brattleboro.
Many summer camp providers will supply activities and entertainment for children. The public is encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity to arrange a fun-filled summer while being entertained. The event will include a free drawing for $100 credit toward a camp of the winner's choice - and free balloons.
“Our Summer Camp Fair gives parents and grandparents the chance to ask questions and register their children for many of the camps listed in our Summer Resources Calendar in one convenient location,” Russell Bradbury-Carlin, Youth Services' executive director, said in a news release.
