“Patriots, Loyalists, and the Fight For Independence” along with “Tribal Tales: American Indians and Early Settlers” will be the exciting themes your children can explore during this year’s Summer History Camp at John Jay Homestead. How can you improve an already great summer experience? By increasing the opportunities for fun and targeting activities toward specific age groups.
The first two weeks (July 20-23 & July 27-30) are specifically designed for children entering grades 5, 6, and 7; the second two weeks (August 3-6 & August 10-13) are customized for those entering grades 2, 3, and 4. Museum Educator Bethany White will once again be organizing the camp, and she anticipates as much interest this year as last, so sign up early. The cost per week will remain the same, a bargain at $300, with a 15% discount for Friends’ members.
The camp will run Mondays to Thursdays, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. For information on camp,
