Summer Camps 2008

All Camps will meet Monday through Friday, with a short demonstration performance during their last 30 minutes of camp on Fridays.  Morning, afternoon and full day camps are offered for various ages and ability levels.  Each camp will have a theme of the week and offer a variety of dance techniques and dance styles. Camp fees are listed below with each camp's description.  There will be no camps during the week of June 30th to July 4th.
 
Full day campers are required to bring a packed lunch, snack, and beverage.  Half day campers may bring their own small snack and water bottles, however animal crackers, pretzels, and water will always be provided.  All students are required to wear appropriate dance attire and footwear, and hair must be neatly secured for all classes. (No street clothes or street shoes allowed!)  

Please check out our Track Out camps this year to benefit those students in year round schools.  Camps have been scheduled throughout the summer to best fit all our dancers' summer schedules.
