Dear Parents and Friends,

Welcome to the 2019 Summer Fun Camp! Our theme this year is Journey — and will be all about where we have come from and where we are going. Our personal journey makes us active citizens in our global community, and, more importantly, shapes us and defines us. A free Summer Fun Camp T-shirt will be provided for each participant, which can be worn on any day of the program. We hope it serves as a reminder that we’re all on this journey together!

Our Summer Fun Camp offers a quality learning experience in a loving and caring environment. Be sure to look over the booklet to read about the courses being offered, and discuss with your child their preferences and hopes for their experience.

Special discounts are available for Early Bird registration and returning students from Summer Fun Camp 2017. Please see page 10 for discount details and online registration information.
