Each of us has a special gift even if we don’t recognize it right away. Let’s sing and dance through Disney’s hit musical, Encanto, and find what makes us special!

Join Hewitt music teacher, Ms. Kirsten Lindberg, as we explore the greatest city in the world together! Each day, we will use public transportation to take a field trip to a different awesome place in New York City.

Farm to Table
July 18-22 ($925)
Calling all health-conscious young chefs! Throughout the week, campers will explore the meaning behind the farm-to-table movement while they cook with ingredients that are primarily sourced locally. In addition to making several recipes, activities will include using food in less common ways like making dyes to add color to food, fabric, or paper. Wondering what kind of market goodies will we experiment with? Zucchini is a great ingredient for going sweet and savory; potatoes offer endless possibilities; and with an abundance of local fruit, a pie might be on the menu! This is the perfect program for foodies who love a social cause.
