Can campers attend for just one week?
Our new Aerial Arts Week at the end of the 2009 schedule is specifically designed to be a one-week program with a focused curriculum. For the regular summer sessions, the directors have developed a carefully staged curriculum of skill introduction and refinement that involves a two-week span which brings campers comfortably from their first attempt through to their circus performance on the final day. The first week is spent learning skills, and the second week focuses on refining those skills and preparing for the big circus show. Based on the directors’ experience, the two-week period is necessary for team-building and achieving sufficient mastery of the skills, as well as promoting another important aspect of summer camp: meeting new people and making new friends. Special attendance arrangements should be discussed with the directors, who do try to accommodate every family’s needs.
