How old is/are your child(ren)?  The Kindercare near us will take kids up to 12 years old.  Maybe not the best option, but I can sign the kids in with a month notice as long as there are openings and the older kid program (which is normally only before and after care, but can be during the day) is never filled.  So I would get camps through the third week of August and when they finally announce, if you need two weeks of care, you can sign them up for two weeks of care.  Tuition is weekly, so you can just sign up for what you need.  There may be other options.  Not the best childcare option, but at least you have an option without committing money in advance like with a camp.

Are you sure we will have a month's notice?   And there have to be limited spots at places like this.   Camps in the county won't stay open till September if they are expecting school to start on August 22nd. So there will be a lot of people scrambling at the last minute if we are waiting on the results of a possibly summertime court decision.[/quote]

The point is that you should plan camps through August 22.  If the county gets to start early, no problem.  If they start September 5, then as soon as it is announced, contact the local chain daycare and make arrangements to enroll your child in the daycare for those 2 weeks.  You need to know by about July 15th to enroll.  And there will be a lot of h*ll to pay if they haven't announced by July 15.  This will cover you if you can't find a summer camp that is available between Aug 22 and Sep 5.  And frankly there will not be many of those and the ones that there are will be booked very early.[/quote]
