Lily usually doesn't do any camps throughout the summer, even though most people do and multiple themed camps are offered every week. I am more of a fan of unscheduled summer fun or boredom. Both are good for the kids. But Cora wanted to try the camp and encouraged Lily to go too. Since Lily really enjoys soccer, I figured an extra week of skills would probably be good for her. It was from 8:30-11:30 am (before it got too hot) at a nearby park and was hosted by UK Elite soccer. It was actually a pretty great camp. Lily loved it and asked if she could do it again. All the coaches were awesome and encouraging and learned all the kids' names and skills. And even if Lily didn't pick up any new skills, it was good to get outside and exercise a little everyday. Thankfully, the weather was pretty nice. The last day (the hottest day with no cloud cover and no breeze) the parents were invited to come watch their "World Cup" scrimmages.

Dani saw these girls playing and went and asked if she could be their friend and play too.
It was getting hot -- Cora was getting tired! :) They both were.
Lily and coach Christian. It was a great experience. We may do it again.
