  CHESS: This summer, USA Chess is offering its exciting and entertaining chess camp at more than 100 locations nationwide. USA Chess is the largest and premier chess camp organizer for children in the United States. The staff is comprised of the finest children’s chess instructors in North America. Registration options include morning, afternoon, and all­-day sessions. Campers experience chess instruction and play in a fun filled environment designed to improve their skills whether they are interested in casual or competitive chess. Tuition includes a trophy, chess set and much more.
  
  VIDEO GAME CREATION: Build a "platform" game like Sonic or Mario. Children have a blast as their characters do the impossible, overcome obstacles and enemies and then conquer the Big Boss. The character progresses on a long path (like a journey) with the background scrolling behind it and adversaries, prizes, obstacles, are encountered as it goes. Lessons on the basics will be similar to the Arcade course in the very beginning, but the class diverges and different programming techniques are taught in order to build this Platform game.
  
  MINECRAFT: Minecraft is hugely popular because it is collaborative, open ended and mod-able. This program promotes those qualities for a week of fun! The week begins with learning the game, controls, recipes and a bit about hosting & networking. Next, campers connect to different worlds hosted on our secure server and experiment with character skins, mods and custom maps. By day three, the kids are building in the Active Learning World that grows over time. Whether adding a room, building a moat or even creating a chessboard the possibilities are nearly limitless.
  
  Registration options include morning, afternoon, and all­-day sessions.

By engaging in simple gardening tasks, they'll strengthen their fine motor skills, increase their environmental awareness, and spark their curiosity about the world around them.

  Instructor: Ciarra Eglin
  Instructor's Bio: 

   Hello, my name is Ciarra Eglin, a 26-year-old first-year PK3 instructional assistant teacher with a green thumb that’s as bright as my smile! From a young age, I was fascinated by the magic of gardening, thanks to the wisdom and love passed down from my grandma. It wasn’t just about planting seeds; it was about nurturing life, watching something grow, and understanding the care plants need to thrive. Fast forward to today, I am now the proud caretaker of over 20 plants (and counting!), each one thriving under their expert care. But it’s not just about plants; it’s about growing—and that’s exactly what I am here to do! As a passionate educator, I’m excited to share my love of gardening with our little ones. I believe that every child can grow just like a plant: with the right amount of attention, patience, and care. From teaching the importance of responsibility to watching those tiny sprouts grow into beautiful plants, I am thrilled to pass along the knowledge and joy of nurturing life to the next generation of gardeners. Let’s just say, if there’s anyone who can teach our little "Blooming Buddies" the magic of growing plants, it’s ME. So get ready to watch your child’s curiosity grow, because with me leading the way, we are about to embark on a gardening adventure like no other.

  Welcome to the Eras Tour --Summer 2025
  
  Welcome to the Eras Tour! We are going to embark on a journey through 20 years of music with the biggest pop sensation of our decade, Taylor Swift. We will make friendship bracelets, dance, sing, create some Taylor Swift merchandise, design posters to advertise the tour, do some karaoke, and create crafts and artwork for every era of Taylor's music. We will even learn more about her stardom and how she became who she is through various books, articles, and videos. 

   

  We truly hope you join us on this magical journey this summer at the Taylor Swift Eras Tour camp! This will not only be a camp about Taylor Swift, but an experience filled with creativity, literacy, talent discovery, and music exploration.

  Instructor: Taylor Hammett
  Instructor Bio: My name is Taylor Hammett! I am a second-grade teacher here at St. Andrews, and I am a major Swiftie. I have been teaching for four years in total, and I love working with children. I enjoy inspiring and creating/learning new things together. This October, I attended the Eras Tour in New Orleans with my mom, and it was such a wonderful experience that I thought it would be fun to share the Eras Tour with St. Andrews Lower School and ECC. I have lots of plans and ideas to immerse students in Taylor Swift's world and help them feel like pop stars themselves. Growing up, Taylor Swift was a positive role model who inspired me, and I am excited to share that joy with my campers.
