Can it really be time for school??????

by maryann - August 10th, 2011

It has been a fun packed summer. We’ve been invaded by pirates, fended off the British, discovered the wilds of nature, ridden horses, gotten muddy and created artistic masterpieces!  I can’t believe camp is coming to a close. We will be enjoying the seventies and eighties decades next week, ending the week with all day free choice activities, a banquet and a memorable closing! Remember that we have holiday camps on all school closing days except national holidays. Come join us and renew camp friendships!  We also provide before and after school programs with transportation to and from Holiday Hill.

Our preschool program will be in full swing when school starts. VPK  begins Aug 29. We still have a few openings in each classroom.  We just added a new staff member so we have some new spaces in the Infant and Toddler rooms as well!

Camp gives kids a world of good!

It has been quite a summer. So much fun packed into three short weeks… seven more to go! We were invaded by pirates and followed the map on a crazy adventure to find the burried treasure.  There was a fun, but wet carnival, boat races and a mess of icecream all packed into one week.  How could I forget the strong win by our Wildcats in the raft race?… GO CATS! Is it any wonder I don’t have time to keep you up to date?  Check out our facebook page for photos!  This week is Amazing America with all sorts of patriotic events, a bike and wagon parade, red white and blue tye dye, our firecracker relay, bubble gum contest, and another invasion.. this time the British led by their General, Mr Lee ( of course).  Wonder who will be our Washington?
