Advice to parents: be sure that your child is truly interested in the activities that we are offering. This is a gentle, sweet camp. We love taking the days slowly with time to watch for tree frogs, and gathering leaves and twigs to create a fairy house. If your child is seeking a faster-paced day, please consider one of the Shakespeare Intensives we offer for starting for 8-year-olds with The Apprentices.
Teaching Staff: Dawn Menola, Sue Rexford, and Lesley Sawhill. All with many years of experience working with and teaching young children. We also have a staff of assistants who will be leading your child to the different activities throughout the day and being their buddy for any special needs that might come up.
