Explore Your Summer Options

Camp Fair season is upon us once again. For us, that means going deep in the storage closet to pull out our table cover, wristbands and pens, preparing a couple of computers with our favorite games, movies, and cartoons, piling up brochures and the nice display stand they sit in, and figuring out just how many business cards is too many to bring along.

For you, this is a chance to see what different Summer programs are available. Even though we think PlanetBravo's Techno-tainment Summer Camp is as good as it gets, even we like to take a look and see what else is out there. Personally, every time I hear something about a secret agent camp, the little kid inside me perks up with interest.

So for those of you who are interested, here are a couple of camp fairs PlanetBravo will be attending:
And of course, there are several great websites we use year-round that list all sorts of camps. I would recommend checking out http://www.kidscamps.com/ and http://www.campchannel.com/ if you can't make it to a camp fair.

And like I said before, after you take a look at what's out there, we hope you choose PlanetBravo to give your child an amazing summer camp experience.

Until next time,

Keep on Thumpin'!

Spring Break Update

March is here, and that means two things to me: March Madness, and Spring Break Camp. For the purposes of this post, I'll set aside my excitement over my Syracuse Orange currently being ranked #1 in the nation and focus specifically on the incredible things PlanetBravo has going on for three weeks this Spring in Palos Verdes at the Terranea Resort and West LA at Brockton Avenue School.

You read that right...THREE WEEKS! We have added an extra week of camp at our Palos Verdes location. So that means as long as your break happens sometime between March 29 and April 16, you can attend Techno-tainment camp!

And speaking of "three"s, we are offering our THREE NEWEST CLASSES during spring break: LEGO-Motion for our younger campers, and Special Effects and Multiplayer Video Game Design for the older ones. All three of these classes are being premiered for the very first time this Spring, so don't miss out on the chance to be the first to try them!

Now, I know for a lot of people, Spring Break is a time for fun in the sun with family on a vacation. Well we thought about that, and PlanetBravo is offering you the PERFECT PACKAGE. Sign your child up for camp at the Terranea Resort in Rancho Palos Verdes, and you will be rewarded with a code for a discounted room rate at the resort. You'll be able to enjoy all the incredible amenities of a luxurious resort while your child is learning and having a blast in a PlanetBravo classroom!

And don't forget, signing up for Spring Break Camp instantly gives you a discounted rate for every week of Summer Camp! So why wait?

REGISTER FOR SPRING BREAK CAMP NOW!
(...and don't forget about Summer)

Keep on Thumpin'.
