Whilst Barack Obama and Hilary Clinton battle for the democratic vote, Enniskillen girl Tara Knowles will be crossing the Atlantic, hoping to make a difference in her own way - at an American Summer Camp.

Tara attended the Camp America Recruitment Fair in January and after meeting with the Directors she secured a placement for this summer.

This means that come June, she will be one of over 7,500 young people traveling with Camp America to placements at summer camps all over the US and will be joining a tradition that is as typically American as mom's apple pie.

If you are interested in applying for a summer that you'll never forget, visit the Camp America website www.campamerica.co.uk and complete an online application. You'll be able to meet with one of our local interviewing team, before your application gets passed on to the American team for placement.
