Between algebraic fantasies and protests for shorter recess, kids hardly have time to enjoy being kids. Today's deal provides children with well-deserved summertime fun: for $17, you get one day of summer day camp (a $35 value) at Lone Star Gymnastics on Altamesa Boulevard. Designed for kids ages 4–12, the five-hour-long, activity-based camps are scheduled throughout the summer. Campers are expected to bring a sack lunch.

At Lone Star Gymnastics, each summer day camp boasts a different energetic theme and activity plan. With camp titles such as Splish Splash, Mad Scientist, and Crazy Cooking, the gym aims to expand the campers' interests while maintaining a balance of physical and cranial activities. Enrollment is generally capped around 30 campers, but if more enroll, Lone Star will add instructors to maintain a perfect kid-to-adult weight ratio.

Lone Star Gym is a member of the national Character Counts! Coalition, through which the gym receives consultation and program evaluation from character-education experts. All staff members are trained in safety and are active throughout the day, except during freeze tag, when they rely on mind somersaults to maintain heart rate.
