                                                        ENROLL NOW -- SPACE IS LIMITED

of delving into the world of imagination and creative writing.

Send them to this summer's Readers' & 'Riters' Camp!

Two sessions offered:

June 8 - June 19  or  July 13 - July 24, 2009

Monday through Friday

1:00 p.m. - 4 p.m.

First Session   R & 'R     June 8  -  June 19     Grades 7 - 12   

Second Session   R & 'R     July 13  -  July 24   Grades 4 - 12     

For starters, students will read and discuss a contemporary classic, but we don't stop there. In the course of the two weeks, they will creatively explore the book through their own creative poems, prose, and scripts, which will be collected in a student anthology for each to keep.  For students who attend both weeks, the second week will be geared towards learning how to perform student work for family and friends. Students improve not only writing and reading skills, but their abilities to listen, think critically, and speak in public, while developing a sense of audience etiquette, as well.  Best of all, students will read and perform their writing on stage before a live audience at the end of the session.

Students can sign up for either one week or both weeks.

$150 per week, or call about our Early Bird Discounts of

 $135 for one week or $265 for two full weeks
