LINX ANNOUNCES NEW OUTDOOR SUMMER DAY CAMP AT ELM BANK!

WELLESLEY, MA – LINX, The Enrichment Club for Kids, announced a new relationship with the Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) and the Massachusetts Horticultural Society (MHS). LINX will offer a new summer day camp at Elm Bank using LINX expertise with child programming and Elm Bank's outstanding grounds and facilities.

“The addition of the LINX Summer Camps at Elm Bank is simply an expansion of our year-round enrichment programs", shared Joseph Kahn, President of LINX.  “We'll offer the best of all worlds this summer: our year-round professional staff that is dedicated to helping children thrive; a full slate of General and Specialty Camps that utilize our fun-based enrichment philosophy; the property at Elm Bank (playing fields, forest trails, gardens and canoeing on the Charles) and our state-of-the-art enrichment center for rainy and extremely hot days all make for the perfect combination of summer fun and enrichment.”

Building on a successful BLOOMS appearance last week in Boston where LINX kids performed for live audiences for a city-wide event led by MHS, LINX will now offer ten weeks of summer (June 22nd - August 28th) camp programs at Elm Bank.  Through a combination of 1 and 2 week programs, LINX will operate on the 36-acres of beautifully maintained playing fields, forest trails and gardens of Elm Bank.  The Charles River wraps around this pristine property and provides the perfect setting for canoeing, sports, games and summer fun.  Elm Bank is conveniently located at the intersection of Wellesley, Dover and Natick, MA with access from Route 16 in Wellesley.

In addition to their General Camp, LINX will offer Specialty Camps including Science and Nature Explorers, All Star Sports Camp, Dance Camp, Martial Arts Camp, Kid TV and Theater Camp and Spanish Summer.  LINX Summer Camps provides boys and girls, ages 4-13, with a safe, fun and enriching summer experience.

KEEPING IT GREEN (Annual MHS Memberships)
LINX Leaders will work with the Property Managers at Elm Bank to identify service projects the campers can participate in to help gain an appreciation of their natural environment.  All camper families automatically become Annual Mass Horticultural Society Members, thus enabling them to enjoy the property on a year-round basis.

LINX Summer Camps announced that open registration begins this Thursday, March 26th at 10AM.  For more information, visit www.linx-usa.com or call (781) 235-3210 to arrange for a tour of their indoor and outdoor facilities.
