3rd Annual Camp Connections Expo Returns to Flamingo Gardens on February 27

Family event connects parents with more than 50 camps & entertainment for kids of all ages

Davie, FL – It’s time to start making plans for spring and summer camp. Broward Family Life will host its 3rd annual Camp Connections Spring & Summer Fun Expo on Saturday, February 27, 2016 from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at Flamingo Gardens, 3750 S. Flamingo Road, Davie.

Camp directors from all over Broward and beyond will be on site to share information about their programs and to answer questions. This event connects parents and future campers with the resources they need to make informed decisions about their spring and summer plans. The expo will showcase a wide variety of options from sports, art and drama to environmental, academic and special needs.

“Every parent wants their child to have a summer to remember. There are so many wonderful programs available but parents may not have the time to do the research,” says Michelle Liem, Publisher, Broward Family Life. "Our expo was designed to provide busy families with a one-stop shopping experience where they can visit with more than 50 camps while enjoying a fun-filled afternoon."

Camp Connections Spring & Summer Fun Expo is sponsored by Joe DiMaggio’s Children’s Hospital. “It’s important that parents have enough information to make an informed decision regarding which camp is most appropriate for their children,” said Milin Espino, Director of Community Relations for Memorial Healthcare System. “We are proud to sponsor this event, which will give parents the tools and resources to learn what South Florida has to offer for spring and summer camps.”

The tropical paradise of Flamingo Gardens is the perfect backdrop for an interactive family experience. "Flamingo Gardens is delighted to partner with Broward Family Life to help bring together the many camp options in one location to help parents find the perfect camp for their children. As an organization that has provided wildlife and ecological tours to children for over 30 years, we understand the value of camp experiences and applaud Broward Family Life's efforts to make that decision a little easier for the families in Broward County,” said Keith Clark, Managing Director & Director of Development for Flamingo Gardens.

Attendees must register online no later than February 25 at www.browardfamilylife.com to receive free admission. Those who register at Flamingo Gardens the day of the event will receive half-price admission to the venue.
