Winter Camp in January


The Auxiliary Programming staff offers child care activities for students in kindergarten through eighth grade for a week of Winter Camp during the first part of January, during teacher workweek. Each day has a different set of activities, and students may register for individual days or for the whole week. The program day runs from 8:30am–3:15pm each day.

A sample of activities offered during this week:

Monday: Make button artwork, weave pot holders, and play tons of fun games like Panda Tag, Elves Wizards Giants, Little Foot, Big Foot, and many more!
Tuesday: Tie-dye Winter Program shirts (provided), cook s’mores over a campfire, and make bars of soap with a fun toy inside.
Wednesday: Play Rescue the Prince, bake chocolate chip cookies, watch a movie, and pop popcorn.
Thursday: Play Camouflage and Beckon, cook lunch over a campfire, and create popsicle picture frames with you and your friends in the picture! Lunch options are hotdogs, grilled cheese sandwiches, and baked beans.
Friday: Play a giant game of Rocks with every level of Winter Program, order pizza for lunch and have carnival games in the afternoon!
