We are back!

Well after a long break we are happy to report that we are back on line and blogging. So much has happened since my last post in 2010 and I can't wait to share it all! Our primary focus this year is still boys and what we can do as parents, educators and a society to make sure they are successful at life. But we will also focus a lot on activities to be done at home and in the community. Please feel free to send me any topics you would like to discuss or submit a guest blog.

Smarty Mom: Latasha Denay Myers

By Katie M

It's my pleasure to introduce you to another great mom today: Latasha Denay Myers. I first met Latasha when she contacted TSP about her summer camp Learning & Adventures camp. As you might remember from our smarty summer camp directory, Learning & Adventures camp was created to address the unique characteristics and learning styles of young boys ages 6 - 12, and includes a special program for boys with disabilities called Bright Light Enrichment. It sounded like a great concept for a camp, and after meeting Latasha, I thought she was pretty smarty for pioneering and overseeing such a a great program, especially as a busy mom with a big family!

Latasha and her husband Alonzo have four children: Shikeaya (9), Josiah (7), Lewis(3), and Camden-Alexander (1). She's lived in the Triad her entire life, and besides running her summer camp she also provides in-home daycare and tutoring. When she's not busy teaching and caring for children, Latasha enjoys spending time cooking, and working with youth at her church. And despite the fact that she suffers from severe fibromyalgia, she is determined to participate in the upcoming Rambling Rose Triathlon this August in Winston-Salem as a way to celebrate her weight loss and fitness goals. You go, girl!

Let's meet Latasha!
