It's almost time... Mark it now on your ca
lendars... Sunday, June 13th at 1:00 pm is Columbia's LakeFest Sixth Annual Boat Float! If you haven't seen a Boat Float yet, in downtown Columbia, now is the time; just remember sunscreen if the sun's out. Last year, it was hot and sunny, but SO much fun to watch the boaters try 1) to get in their boats and float, 2) actually move their boats around the course, and 3) finish the course! Woo hoo hoo!
Here is the activity schedule for that weekend, so get your calendars out: June 12 - 14: LakeFest Celebration

· Sunday, June 14: 12:00 - 7:00 visual arts activities and performances at lakefront

A message from Victoria Hauck victoria@lnf.com.
This year, hundreds of thousands of people will hear the words "You have cancer", and there's a good chance that some of them will be people we know and love. We have all been touched by cancer in some way ... and we all have the power to make a difference. That's why I have chosen to fight back right here in my own community by participating in the American Cancer Society Relay For Life®.
I want to invite you to join me in the fight against cancer by making a donation in support of my efforts. Further down in this message is a link to my personal Relay For Life® web page where you can make an online contribution. You can make a one time gift or increase your impact by donating monthly. Every amount, no matter how small, makes a difference and provides hope.
Relay For Life® brings more than 3.5 million people from across the country together each year to celebrate the lives of those who have battled cancer, remember loved ones lost, and fight back against a disease that takes too much.
Thank you in advance for your support. Together, we will celebrate, remember, and fight back.

Thre's an informative new website available for Maryland: The Maryland State Department of Education has put together a very comprehensive website, allowing the public to search for the licensing inspection records of all the child care providers in the State: msdecompliancereports.org

Furthermore, you can search by the provider, or the address, the county, or the type of childcare, depending on what information you have starting out. This could also be used just to get a listing of an area's providers, with all their contact information and license #, thus ensuring they 1) are licensed, and 2) have passed the most recent inspection, and 3) are in the area you're considering for your child(ren).
For instance, when I search Howard County, and then Columbia, for a Licensed Child Care Center, I am presented with 111 results to pore through. What a great centralized spot for all of this information!
While the Department of Education staff is apparently still hard at work entering updated information, this should prove to be a great resource for parents of young children in Maryland. Get the word out!
