Campers will “visit” different countries and cultures as they “travel” and experience games, foods, art, several languages, and especially music every day. With voices, instruments, and movement, the campers will engage in sharing and building understanding to recognize their place in our multicultural community. Camp provides opportunities to the competitive game player while teaching cooperation, sportsmanship, and creativity. Thursday is still water day! Many games, relay races and challenges will involve water, ending the day with a massive water-balloon game! The week will culminate on Friday with a concert for friends and family. Please bring a $15 materials fee to the first day of camp.
