wow! These are great resources for those who live in Wisconsin as well as those who may want to travel to Wisconsin for vacation. I have a friend from Wisconsin and every year she heads back up there and takes her "tween" daughter with her. I'll have to pass this info along so she can consider these camps as an entertainment and educational option. Thanks for sharing!
