You’re never too old to go to camp. When I volunteered to chaperone my son’s 6th grade trip to Science Camp last month, I wasn’t sure if he’d be thrilled or mortified at the prospect of his dad tagging along. Regardless, I wanted to seize this father-son bonding opportunity, because he’ll be off to college before you know it (as my wife frequently points out). I was relieved when he reacted with genuine excitement about me joining him on the trip, and that it wasn’t uncool to have dad bunking in his cabin.

Hiking, zip-lining, and spending nights around the campfire created wonderful memories for all of the kids…especially for some of us big ones.

Featured on April’s cover, Stephen Zygo and Acting Academy for Kids kick off our annual Summer Camp Guide issue. With 10 weekly, themed camps, The Acting Academy provides your 4 to 13-year-old shining stars with the opportunity to participate in an authentic performing arts experience. The Academy also offers a Musical Theater, Junior Director and TV and Film program. Learn more about Stephen and his love of theater on page 10. For an abundance of camp ideas to keep the kids engaged all summer, check out the Summer Camp Guide on Page 12.

Director program for both the Spring Musical and Summer Performing Arts Camps. Open to students 10-years and older, this unique opportunity teaches participants how to work backstage with the Stage Manager and Director; help with lighting designs, props, and costumes; and create a live stage show through hands-on experience.

COVER STORY

Register for Summer Camps Today!

One of the most exciting developments in recent years has been AA4K Studios, a conservatorystyle Film and TV Academy. The school gives students a firm foundation in the skills and technical knowledge necessary to succeed in the film and TV business. The curriculum advances according to age and experience, and includes mid-term progress reports, individual evaluations, and plenty of time spent in front of the camera. Each semester, students produce and star in a short film that is screened at an extravagant red carpet gala attended by family, friends, and industry professionals. Students also receive a reel of their work, professional IMDb (Internet Movie Database) credit, and feedback from professionals currently working in the industry.

“Our program differs from most other TV and film programs,” relates Stephen, “because our main goal is to educate our students in the art and craft of filmmaking, not to get them agents. We want to teach them in a really fun and engaging way, so they walk away more enlightened and confident about themselves as actors and as people.”

BY VERONICA BADZEY

Acting Academy for Kids (AA4K) offers students of all ages a wealth of opportunities to explore the fun and amazing world of theater.

Established in 2007 by Stephen and Maggie Zygos, AA4K has become a well-known program throughout Orange County for its family-friendly Performing Arts Summer Camps, exceptional Musical Theater Program, and the progressive AA4K Studios, a conservatory-style program for TV and film.

AA4K’s Performing Arts Summer Camps use contemporary favorites chosen by its students for its students. Actors, ages 4 to 13, are invited to attend one week of camp, the entire ten weeks, or anything in between. Themes change every week, and include live stage performances each Friday, complete with professional costumes, props, lighting and sound. “Our goal is to create a fantastic, amazing summer experience for kids,” exclaims Stephen. “We want them to have a great time while learning important life skills about confidence, leadership, and creativity.”

The Camp Director, Mr. Dimitri Garaud, is a favorite with attendees and will be returning this year to lead the popular program, which runs June through August. Also returning are many of AA4K’s alumni, who love to assist backstage, run lines with the campers, and help with props

and costumes. This year’s extended offerings include 10 weeks at San Clemente’s Cabrillo Playhouse, 9 weeks at Irvine’s OC Music and Dance, and 5 weeks at Laguna Niguel’s Community Roots Academy. Classes run Monday through Friday, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., with optional enrichment programs from 8 a.m. until 5 p.m. No experience is necessary to participate.

Visit ActingAcademyForKids.com for more information on summer camps and programs and to register your young actor for an engaging experience where they can make lifelong friends.

Local students can also sign up for AA4K’s upcoming Spring Musical, Disney’s Aladdin, which is open to aspiring actors, singers, and dancers ages 5 to 16. Rehearsals begin the week of April 9th and will be held at three different locations: Community Roots Academy in Laguna Niguel, OC Music and Dance in Irvine, and the Holiday Inn Express in San Clemente. With class sizes limited to 30 students, every child that enrolls is guaranteed a part. This exciting experience culminates in June, when kids have the opportunity to perform in front of live audiences at OC Music and Dance’s brand new, state-of-the-art Main Stage theater.

For kids who enjoy the world of theater, but would prefer to work behind the scenes, AA4K also offers a Junior

TSTREET VOLLEYBALL CLUB Tstreet is ranked #1 in California, #7 in the nation (USClubRankings.com), and home of the 2015 and 2017 USAV Junior National Champions. Named after an iconic, family beach in San Clemente, Tstreet clinics range from position specific, age specific, general skills, sand-camps, and more throughout the summer. Training is open to boys and girls ages 8 to 18, and programs cater to introductory through advanced level athletes. Last summer, the improvement of day campers was phenomenal, leading to roster positions on school and club teams. Tstreet is owned and managed by two-time Olympic Gold Medalist (coach and player) Troy Tanner. Troy brings his philosophy of "achieving one's highest potential" to the club. Proven mechanics, repetitions, feedback and fun are emphasized in Tstreet’s state-of-the-art gymnasium, located at the “El Toro Y” in Irvine.

$ QUESTION: I currently have a will. What are some of the benefits of a living trust?

– Eric in Laguna Niguel

Hi Eric, Some of the benefits of a properly structured living trust are: • Avoid costly probate proceedings of assets; • Faster distribution of assets to beneficiaries; • Tax benefits to beneficiaries; • Plan in place in case you need a conservator; • No public record of private financial affairs; and, • Control the who, what, where and when of your asset distribution when you are gone.

Estelle & Kennedy, APLC has assisted many clients establish a living trust that preserves wealth, protects assets, facilitates the smooth transfer of assets to beneficiaries, and eliminates and/or reduces estate tax and capital gain tax exposure. There are many benefits to having a living trust as part of an estate plan and Estelle & Kennedy is highly skilled in advising and representing clients in this practice area.

“We have seen family relationships destroyed and estate assets wasted and/or lost due to a lack of foresight and procrastination that lead to poor or no estate planning. Sadly, the inevitable tragic results could have been avoided with a well-structured estate plan that includes a living trust,” says partners Michael Kennedy and Brandy Estelle.

With three convenient offices, Estelle & Kennedy, APLC has experienced trust and probate attorneys and support staff dedicated to meeting the client’s specific needs and walking them through the process.

CRYO FOR KIDS! COLD RUSH WELLNESS FAMILY HOUR

Dr. Scott Young and his team at Cold Rush Wellness have been working on their patient’s immune systems with Whole Body Cryostimulation for more than 4 years now. The data collected has revealed some startling results.

Patients say they feel more energetic and healthier than ever, with far fewer instances of colds and flus. After surviving an historically bad flu season, it’s more important than ever to look for alternative therapies that strengthen your immune system. Dr. Young decided to start offering this cutting edge technology to kids as well as adults. Kids often don’t feel pain like adults when something is wrong. They may act out instead or have problems concentrating when they’re tired or a little under the weather. When real sickness takes hold, the world stops for everyone until they get better. According to Dr. Young, the families who have already adopted Cryostimulation have felt the benefits for a while now and everyone at Cold Rush Wellness is excited about it.

Open Daily. Evening Appointments Available.

Cryotherapy is an adaptogen, an environmental exposure used to promote homeostasis or balance in the body. So consistency is the key to good results. Cryo for kids can yield a stronger immune system with less allergies, colds and flus. For more information, check out www.coldrushwellness.com or visit the company's Facebook page.

Parents and kids are welcome on April 14th and 28th from 12 to 3 p.m. to attend the Cold Rush Wellness Family Happy Hour to see what cryostimulation can do for your family’s health.

The 12th annual Dana Point Grand Prix (DPGP), presented by Kingston Technology®, returns Sunday, April 29. This free, family-friendly, healthy bicycle celebration offers a unique and fun sports experience while raising money for outstanding charities. The event is hosted within the downtown Dana Point Lantern District and is considered a premier Southern California up-close bicycle racing experience for spectators, families and participants.

Officially sanctioned by USA Cycling, the governing entity for professional & amateur racing, the DPGP is part of its prestigious national Pro Road Tour schedule.

Attendees will experience thrilling racing action with cyclists often exceeding speeds of 40 mph, competing within inches of one another. Referred to as “NASCAR on Bikes,” the DPGP offers fans the opportunity to watch top American and International athletes navigate a challenging and technical race circuit criterium from local restaurants, shops and expo attractions lined along the course.

In addition to the international level competition, the DPGP will once again team with the Boys & Girls Clubs of Capistrano Valley to present one of the event’s highlights, the free Youth Races beginning at 12 p.m. Kids will have the chance to ride on the same road course as the Pro’s. Age classes start at 4 & under and go up to 10-years-old, with each participant receiving a t-shirt, medal and other cool swag that promotes a healthy, active lifestyle.

The Dana Point Community Cycling Foundation, Inc., a 501c3 non-profit organization advocating bicycle-friendly communities and safe, responsible cycling, is the organizing entity of the event. The Foundation collaborates with local charities to help organize and produce the top-notch national event.

Races take place throughout the day, with Kids Races starting at noon. The grand finale pro races will start at 2:30 and 4 p.m. for the ladies and men, respectively. Visit DanaPointGrandPrix.com for more details.
