I can't believe that the first week of camp is already over. We had a BLAST! Every day of camp was focused around a different theme: either a time period or a specific artist. Within every day we had FOUR planned projects. A few days had some bonus projects. And if anyone finished something early, they were able to free draw/ free paint until the whole group was ready to move on to the next project.

Additionally, every day we had a snack break around the half-way mark ANNNDDD at the end of the day, the kids got to go out to the playground to play with the sports camp kids and enjoy some popsicles!
Did your kid have a GREAT TIME??
Sign up again! My week 2 of camp is already full and registrations are closed, but weeks 3 and 4 are still up for grabs. Don't worry about repeats, every single week is a completely new batch of famous artist themes, so your child will have a whole new experience each week they come. ----- Coach turner is also still taking in sign ups for all three weeks of sports camp.

Do you need FULL-DAY child care?
There is a full-day summer camp at the school being run by someone else....BUT they have allowed kids to come to our camps in the morning and be dismissed to THEM for the back half of the day. Contact me or the front office for more information on how to get in contact with that other camp to make appropriate arrangements.
Do you want to bring a non-NCA kid?
Sure! As long as the student is between the ages of CURRENT Kindergarten to 5th grade, sign them up! The more the merrier! The kids always have more fun when they are surrounded by good friends.
I had a great week with these kiddos, and i hope you enjoy exploring all of their artwork! Hope to see you all real soon!
All My Love,
Mrs. Lilly
