KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (April 10, 2006) -- On May 21, FINE LIVING TV NETWORK will feature a new summer programming event. The Family Summer Kick-Off event will showcase programming dedicated to all things summer -- preparing viewers for the summer months ahead. FINE LIVING will help viewers get into full swing with information and tips on summer travel.

Camp Adventures: A Family Affair shows how summer camp is not just for kids. The special outlines different types of family camps, which bring parents and kids together for one-of-a-kind adventures. Viewers can grab the youngsters and catch a wave at Surf Camp, perfect their putting and ground strokes at Golf and Tennis camp, or create beautiful music as a family at Performing Arts Camp.

In Family Getaways: Summer Edition, host Peggy Bunker takes viewers on a tour of fun and creative family vacation destinations. Follow real families, with their stories and adventures and reach new heights on a rock-climbing retreat, discover a city on a scavenger hunt vacation, or earn sea legs aboard a 1922 Schooner getaway.

FINE LIVING will reveal those hidden gems tucked away down the road, across the bay and over the hills from the bustling high profile destinations that are simply overrun with tourists.
