Office of Work-Life Hosts Second Annual Summer Camps Fair

LEXINGTON, Ky. (March 2, 2015) The University of Kentucky Office of Work-Life, within UK Human Resources, would like to make your search for great summer camps and/or summer child care for your children or grandchildren a little easier this year. 

The 2nd Annual Summer Camps Fair is from 11 a.m.-2 p.m. Tuesday, March 3, in the UK Student Center Grand Ballroom, and is open to all faculty, staff and students. Spouses and partners are also welcome and encouraged to attend.

Registration is available at http://bit.ly/2015SummerCamps

Attendees will have the opportunity to meet with camp representatives from programs focused on everything from art to sports to academics. There will also be an opportunity to learn more about the Big Blue Family Care program and find a child care provider for the summer.

“Camps and activities from Fayette and surrounding counties will be at the event.  Many camps are offering UK employee discounts and/or pre-registration for those who attend.  We hope that this event will help members of the UK community find summer camps, programs and child care that meet their families' summer care needs,” said Erika Chambers, director of the Office of Work-Life.
