I have wondered the same thing myself, many many times.
Why aren’t there summer camps for adults??
I am a 60 year old woman. I’m active…I love hiking and camping, golf and archery, I paint and play the harmonica.
I would LOVE to find a grown-up summer camp where I could go for a week or two.
If you ever find one, please let me know!’
I am so there!

There are some summer camps for adults, and some for women specifically in the US. There are also a few family camps out there – I’ve heard of one in Ontario. Never got to go to camp as a child and may try to do this at some point. I was always good at popsicle stick art and my bug collection was A-1, so I’d fit right in! Well, every day was summer camp back in the day.

I read enough to keep my brain occupied. Also, I help my girls with math & science. Nothing like helping with homework to keep sharp.

Allison, maybe a Spanish pottery class in French?

Ah, nap time. Spanish are wise beyond their years.

I’m hoping to take a pottery class this summer. This fall, French.

Cormac, I’m writing my column on HK this friday, many jokes have filled my own vile mind, but I have censored them from my typist’s fingers.

Nanc, wish I could do swim camp with the Bowler Gays and Blues camp with the Ottawa 6, but I look forward to your teachings

“So why don’t they have adult summer camps.”

(Must resist Helen Keller-talking hip joke that will get me booted from this blog for life…)
So, yeah, a “nap camp?” I’ll be the first to sign up.

Racquel, Greek, I’m impressed. Keep learning, chick.

Dick, you sent me those brilliant DVDs on quantum physics, archeology, Darwinian biology … of course you’re into learning

Becks, bring back nap time. The spanish never gave it up.

Barbara, yer in and there’s a special segment in popsicle dark matter.

Sign me up for the popsicle stick art class! I understand Stephen Hawking is teaching that one.
