The Summer Spot, a new educational summer program for children, was spearheaded by Needham native Kristen Newcomb Daly and Katie Keith. The pair, who both have several years of experience working with children, currently work for the Needham Extended Day Program.
“Our summer program is much like a traditional day camp but brings a unique twist as it focuses on children’s interests,” Daly said to Patch. “[The Summer Spot] helps them explore and develop further.”
