June, July & August Camps (for ages 6-12)
Expand your Horizons! Live in other countries! Experience other cultures!
There's still time to enroll in our summer camp sessions! Campers journey across the world and can immerse themselves in new cultures through tales from China, America and South America. The days are filled with stories, songs and traditions from the regions. Children can travel to China to play with a dragon they create, meet the creatures of the rain forest in South America or explore American folklore. Each camp features a special guest speaker, such as Hedgerow's own Elizabeth Owsley, who grew up in China, and Chief Grey Owl Thunder Heart, a native American chief who will demonstrate native dance and crafts for the American Tales campers.
