LINX Festival and Summer Camp

Today was LINX summer festival. LINX is an after-school enrichment club here in Wellesley where both Katie and Nicholas attend immersion Spanish classes, and Katie also takes an inventors course. Yes we are big fans. The LINX summer festival is the culmination of the year's program: Katie's class build a go-cart, and Katie also got to display a water-pistol reloading system she built our of a 2-liter soda bottle and parts.

The kids will be attending the new LINX summer camp this year as well. The camp is right in Wellesley at the Elm Bank Horticulture Center.
