- Tour CJ with our Eagle Ambassadors to meet faculty and staff members.
- Meet the cast of the Spring Musical Grease, watch a scene from the show, and learn about set design and show prep.
- See the new Student Conditioning Center and review this year's Eagle 2011 Summer Camp line up all at the same time. Camps include Art, Creative Writing, STEMM, Basketball, Cheerleading, Dance, Football, Laffalot, Soccer, Tennis and Volleyball.
