SUMMER CAMP | |
Thanks for a great summer! We had a wonderful summer camp program this year and it was larger then ever. We are very grateful to the many volunteer counselors and special guests who made it all possible!
In July, the campers enjoyed fun activity rotations which included African Drum lessons, martial arts, pottery, baking, tennis and bingo. Campers took a field trip to the Orange County History Center and were visited by Mad Science, Central Florida Community Arts and Summer Time Santa! Campers ended the summer with a beautiful Talent Show enjoyed by their fellow campers, counselors and family members.
