CAMP ACTIVITIES Your child's week at camp is a submersion into Korean-American life.  While English is still spoken in camp, just about everything else is about Korean culture with the appropriate blending of American influence.  Positive Korean Role Models are emphasized each day.  Counselors are mostly Korean-American and classes taught are mostly done so by Korean-American adults. Each day starts with Cho-Whey, a gathering, where announcements, presentations and exhibits occur.  From there, children go with their groups to any number of activities that may be either educational or recreational.  Children are assigned to groups dependent on which grade they are entering in the Fall of the same year as camp. Day Campers (Grades K-6) learn about Korean language, culture, storytelling, art, music, dance, TaeKwonDo, self-esteem and adoption issues.  Their recreational activities include Korean games, soccer, volleyball, archery, swimming and nature hikes. Resident Campers (Grades 7-11) have the advantage of staying at camp all week and partaking in the social activities that are abundant.  In addition to the activities listed above, age-appropriate activities are coordinated to provide a format for social interaction.  Resident Camp has a multitude of fun for our campers starting with the first evening.  Usual activities for the week include team building tasks, learning how to design a personal portfolio, all camp Olympics, Orienteering, Obstacle courses, teen games, team survival skills, Korean cooking classes, rock climbing, film making, self defense, movies, social time, a dance party, personal journal time, and lots of social interaction!!! More specific information regarding your child's activities and schedules will become available as camp week draws near, and will be available for all registered families.             PICTURES
