DAY CAMP: 56 campers travel the world
Where else can kids meet guests from around the world with fun and educational activities? Cultures of the World Day Camp ended yesterday with a record number of campers who joined us for one of two weeks of stories, music, crafts, games, snacks, and guests from other countries! Visit www.KidsAndCultures.com (click on the main photo on the home page) to see photos, listen to audio postcards, watch video clips, and more! We had a wonderful two weeks and thank the guests and volunteers who helped to make Camp possible.
