This is Camp Read-a-Lot's sixth year in The Woodlands and continues to get rave
reviews. Children spend the week engaged in meaningful literacy activities in
a camp setting (without the need for bug spray or rain gear!) where they enjoy
lots of music, stories, reading, writing, crafts, snacks, and much more. Each
session is held at the Montgomery County Community Center located next to the
Public Library on Lake Robbins Drive. Cost for the session is $150. Camp

WOW! From the Heart

This new program brings the science camp animals to classrooms or homes to minister to children who are going through trauma such as illness or a family death. Referrals are accepted at any time. It is amazing to see how God uses animals to minister to children who are suffering.
