Editor’s Note With May’s arrival, we are certainly all still adjusting to some of the new norms and anxiously awaiting the next steps to come in this unsettling time. While the extra family and home time is comforting and welcome for some, it is financially and emotionally stressful for many others. (Many of us are experiencing all of these feelings on any given day!) We hope, above all, that you and your loved ones are staying well - whether you are an essential worker, a new Zoom meeting expert, or if very little has changed with your home routine. The May issue of NW Kids is always the last of our Summer Camp Guides. We know that this looks a bit different this year, but decided to go ahead with this issue in a digital format only. Some camps have canceled their 2020 season, some have moved to an online or remote format for now and some are waiting and hoping that all will be able to go on as planned. We are certainly hoping for the latter as well! Please check their websites for the latest registration info as some of the information in the guide will have already changed. For now, we are sending you all virtual hugs!

Mary
