Due to the Papal visit September 23rd, many DC schools are affected by school closures. There are some camps out there, but many cannot accommodate Pre-K 3 children. For anyone who is interested, Silver Stars Gym in Silver Spring has opened up a camp for that day and can take children as young as 3.5. Here's the link if you'd like to sign up:

It's like $68 per child and a little extra for a pizza lunch.

So far, I think Stokes, Lee, LAMB, CMI and ITS are affected, but there may be more. Please spread the word and a big thanks to Silver Stars for accommodating a camp on such short notice. I know Art Works Now, an excellent art camp, is also hosting a camp that day. It may be easier for families coming from NE. The traffic jam will be right around Catholic U. So, NW families may have an easier time getting to Silver Spring. Whatever the case, I think we're in for a doozy of a commute that morning. Good luck everyone!

I would pay a lot more for a baby sitter for the day.

Silver Stars will make a killing but they already had announced camp b/c MoCo is closed on the 23rd for Yom Kippur.

Good for them! I'm just glad I found somewhere that will take my 3 year old! Hope other nice families will join us. I'll bedrooping them off and then joining the chaos of trying to get a glimpse of the Pope. Wish me luck!

Any bets on how Brookland to silver spring traffic will be that day? Or if I live in Brookland near the basilica should I just take off work and plan to stay home?
