BRICKS 4 KIDZ

We’re thrilled to spotlight our new camps this summer.

See what’s new below.

Bricks 4 Kidz camps focus on learning through play by creating an environment that engages children’s curiosity and creativity. From building amazing things with LEGO® to exploring the world of science through fun, innovative experiments, Bricks 4 Kidz camps have something for everyone! More information — page 22.

CARPENTRY

While building their projects from scratch children are introduced to concepts like applied math, problem solving, fine motor skills and empowered with the opportunity to use a large variety of woodworking tools. Our motto: Building confidence and teaching with respect and humor in a safe and happy environment. — page 20.

FASHION CAMP

Pickleball is not only for adults, it’s also for kids! It’s a combination of tennis, ping pong, and badminton and extremely fast paced, perfect to keep your camper entertained. The Paragon Pickleball coaching staff are excited to be offering this new and amazing camp. — page 21.

SPIDERS ULTIMATE FRISBEE

Come join Oakland’s newest professional team the Oakland Spiders, and learn a new sport this summer—Ultimate Frisbee!

Larry Wadford

Be aware of your surroundings, avoid trouble. If you get into trouble—get out of it, if you can’t get out of trouble—get out of it anyway! Traditional Okinawan Karate-do, Wado Ki Kai (style) means “to learn from all things.” Kids of all strength and experience levels learn Karate in a kid-friendly way. Kids are taught the importance of respect and self-discipline, challenging their bodies and minds. This is a comprehensive program that deals with “street” awareness, avoiding strangers, and self-defense on a kid’s level. You are welcome to sit in on class for a week to see if it is a good fit. Sensei Larry Wadford has trained and taught Karate for over 20 years.
