be centered on our favorite fairy tales and princesses! The games, arts and crafts, and activities are sure to make all of our campers feel like a real

music, and plenty of dancing!

families where the girls will perform to their favorite show tune. Break a leg ladies!

to show all their camp friends all of the crazy concoctions they've created during the week.
Week 9: Fun and Fitness Week August 10 -August 14

with a camp-wide game off.
