CHARITYWIRE—If you like kids, summer camp and eating, here's a charity that combines all three. Every Wednesday from now through July, all of the area Clyde's locations plus the Old Ebbitt Grill will feature a special item on their menus. If you order it, a portion of the proceeds goes to the Washington Post's Send a Kid To Camp campaign. [EaterWire]
