We’ll have rhythm activities as we follow Bree and Hwin’s journey across the desert, and explore music written for such occasions: “The Wild Rider”, “The Chase” to name a few.  As we approach the city of Tashbaan, we’ll listen to “The Great Gate of Kiev.”  Somewhere along our travels, we will compose a song, and accompany our singing with various instruments.  As Shasta waits at the tombs for the others to arrive, he probably looked up at the night sky.  We’ll add appropriate ‘soundtracks’ for various sections of the story.  Music has been written for every occasion:  battle music, celebration music, even music about a donkey from “Carnival of the Animals”.  There will be lots of hands on with instruments, singing, creating, listening, puppet plays, art and more.

You will be ready to bake with your very own handmade apron & potholder! On the first day of camp, learn the parts and functions of a sewing machine and become confident in your ability to operate it as you sew a simple chapstick holder. All week long, you will build your knowledge of sewing terms as you sew fun and useful projects, including practice in sewing on buttons that will end up as an adorable pillow. Learn how to troubleshoot the most common sewing issues so you are more likely to keep sewing at home. 

You can bring your own sewing machine or share one if you don’t have one. If you would like your machine cleaned and oiled so it is set up and ready for camp, you will need to schedule a drop-off time the week prior to camp. Cost is $20.
