Recommended: Performing Arts Camps for Kids

Our companion email list, the Cleveland Park Listserv, is a treasure trove of recommendations. We want to share on All Life Is Local, on a periodic basis, the best recommendations that have been posted on the Cleveland Park Listserv. You'll be able to search All Life Is Local for "contractor," "plumber," "doctor," "computer tech," "auto body shop" -- whatever you need.


I received over 30 responses (suggestions) to my inquiry about Performing Arts Camps. Is this Listserv spectacular or what! Have a great summer!
