Out
School Breaks (Kids; Summer)
Definition
The CPEer of this card may begin researching options for camps or other summer activities months in advance. This workload lasts until the minute all the required forms and fees are taken care of and every day is covered (up to 90 days, but who’s counting?).

- Mapping out each week of summer with “calendar keeper” to determine which activities fit which weeks, not conflicting with trips and other summer events
