(Brandi Stafford/The Cincinnati Enquirer) | For one week last summer, 14-year-old Natalie Meiszer of Sycamore Township started every morning with a lesson about skin care, aromatherapy or nutrition. She followed that with aerobics, step class or boot camp-style exercises.
Nope, not a luxury vacation on an elegant island - summer camp.
"It was one of the best summer camps I've ever been to," says Meiszer, who has also attended sports camps. "Every single day, I couldn't wait to get there. All the things we did, all the friends I made, everything there was just fun."
