Parade and performance in suits will take place on last day of camp. Earth Works Art Camp July 9-13 or Aug. 6-10 Inspired by artist Andy Goldsworthy’s movement to use the earth as his medium. Come explore the mediums of earth and water as we collect and assemble earth matter into natural creations. Allowing us to experience the natural world in a hands-on, artistic way. Projects will take place out doors around Skinner’s butte and surrounding park areas. Art works will be allowed to live their lifespan in nature for all to admire. A slide show of the week’s creations will be posted online for students and families to admire. Recycle Scouts Camp July 16-20 or Aug. 13-17 Learn about the life cycle of stuff! Such as what original resources are used, how it is made, how it is transported, how it decomposes as well as the best ways to recycle and reuse. This hands-on, creative camp is intended to heighten our awareness of all things that go into our waste stream, whether it is trash, recycling or compost. We will make re-use art that teaches ourselves and inspires others to create a cleaner and greener tomorrow. D I Y Camp July 23-27 or Aug 20-24 We know DIY means do-it-yourself, but isn’t that just a myth? Everyone has help along the way! In DIY Camp we will learn how to use common tools and methods to fix and mend damaged treasures. With these tools we’ll learn skills that allow creative solutions to flourish. During the week you can bring items that need fixing or mending to work on in camp. MECCA Family Members receive a $25 discount per camp.
