Check out these 7 unique Huntsville summer camps meeting IRL in 2020
So, you’re ready to get out of the house or more accurately, your kids are. You have assessed your risk and weighed the pros and cons and decided for your family summer camp IRL (in real life) is needed. We’re not gonna lie, your options are more limited this year as a glance at our 2020 Summer Camp Guide will tell you (so many crossed out camps!), but there are still camps happening and below we’ve highlighted some we think look pretty cool.
