The first was a day camp from Florida which comes to North Carolina for a week of fun and games as an end of summer treat. We then had two sessions of D.A.R.E. camp which is run and paid for by the Henderson County Sheriffrsquos Department. It is generally for kids from underprivileged backgrounds that are hand chosen by their tea http://www.travelblog.org//North-America/United-States/North-Carolina/Hendersonville/blog-321561.html After the first session of kids had left we had 4 days until the second session arrived so we got quite a bit of time off. Mick got to go play golf at the best course he had ever seen even better than the Jasper Park Lodge in Canada. Itrsquos called the Cleghorn Plantation and is rated in the top 50 courses in the USA. To top it all off it only cost 50 to play including Cart.
