Please understand, we make no exceptions to the minimum age required to be in each group.
If My child has attended camp in the past. Will they do the exact same things or will the projects be different?
Many of our camp themes are popular and we offer them every year or every other year- but they are never the same. Our instructors create their own lesson plans based on the criteria listed in the camp summaries. Therefore, we have fresh, fun, and different programming every year!
If there is ever any overlap with a project here or there, we try to put a different spin on it or modify it for any campers who have done it before.

Yes. Your Child may participate in an outdoor art activity.
