summer camps; homeschooling

[Guest guest]

Hi!

We are a happy vegan homeschooling family. We all love to

learn, so we have a lot of fun. We cover the basics very solidly and

then the ends of known universe is our limit, at least visually.

[incidentally, we are also a very, very happy no-T.V. family, too.] I

believe that there are a LOT of right ways to do things. This works

very well for us and our circumstances. When we left traditional

school, I regretted that my kids would lose the opportunities to

educate others about diet choices. Never fear, there are all kinds

of people contacts where they get to explain that don't eat meat

because it's bad for the animals, and bad for their health, and that

they prefer Rice Dreams or Silk on their cereal. Their non-

judgemental conviction and their solid education on the subject has

opened many minds. (Our kids attend all the vegan meeting and

lectures we do; my daughter's topic for the Tropicana Speech contest

was " What does a Body good? " You guessed it, about milk)

Summer camp question. Is there a vegan residental summer camp

somewhere out there, or anything close? We have been happy that the

Girl Scout camp in our community invariably has a few vegan

counselors, who take care of the vegan kids, but I'd love to venture

out. Any suggestions?

Thanks. Lynn Doslon and the Dolson School for Five
