What will my child do?
Each morning, all campers
gather (young and older) for the morning wake-up and
welcome session. This includes traditional camp games
and favorites like the “freeze dance”. After the welcome
session, campers divide by age and continue with their
director. The curriculum includes dance and gymnastics
classes, outdoor activities, arts and crafts, and music
study. Each week will conclude with a Friday performance
and party for the campers and their loved ones!
