Operation Military Kids Summer Camp
 UNH Cooperative Extension's Operation: Military Kids (OMK) Program has rolled out its offering of four Tour of Discovery camps for military children and families. Programs are open to all branches of the military, including Active Duty, National Guard, and Reserves.
Operation: Military Kids is a partnership of Army Child & Youth Services, 4-H National Headquarters/USDA, and University of New Hampshire Cooperative Extension.
OMK events are wonderful opportunities for New Hampshire's 4,100+ geographically-dispersed children in military families. In the Tour of Discovery camp settings, youth are able to make new friends, reconnect with kids they have already met, and share important time with young people having similar life experiences as a military kid.
Overnight youth camps "Reel in the Fun" (fishing), "Capture Your Adventures" (photography), and "Food, Fitness, and Fun" (healthy lifestyles) will be offered throughout New Hampshire. These are open to all military kids from ages 10 to 18, with only a nominal $15 registration fee - there is no other cost to attend these camps!
Space is limited, and camps are sure to fill up fast. For more information go to the website or call 603-862-0876.

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 51,000 pedalcyclists were injured in motor vehicle traffic crashes in 2009. Everyone has a responsibility to share the road responsibly - including bicyclists. This is especially important in communities that do not have an extensive bicycle path or lane network beyond recreational use. For individuals bicycling to work or school they must often use the roadway.
