Ravenswood School was buzzing with activity this summer.  The desirable North Side school hosted several camps and activities.  For many years now Ravenswood parents have been leading the way among Chicago Public Schools for their grassroots fundraising and academic program support.

This summer I helped coach a new three day basketball camp organized by a Ravenswood parent.  My son who attends St Matthias played in the 2nd-5th grader group.  We had kids from several schools but mainly Ravenswood and St. Matthias.  The school was buzzing with great kids and families everyday.

 Many CPS school facilities host summer camps.  Check out the school web sites and Google your desired locations early and often. Some camps fill up fast.  You can also call up the schools to ask about summer programs.
