2009 Summer Youth Camps

2010 Summer Camp Information Available January 2010!

2009 Discovery Camp (Ages 5-8)
Discovery Camps are “hands on” experiential, active, creative, and progressive camps that will allow children to explore things in the world such as dinosaurs, frogs, birds and the solar system. We will also have the chance to explore other things that are important in the world today such as fitness, nutrition, and recreation. Fields, forests, streams and outer space will be our classroom. Games, crafts, collecting, and sensory awareness activities will be on the bill for each camp. The camp also uses the Student Recreation Center to swim, climb and play traditional camp games. If your child would like building bug houses, searching for seeds, exploring new things and digging in the dirt, then this is the place for them.
