WOW! We have received such great support from TSIC supporters about our three-week life skills camp. (http://www.takestocksarasota.org/)
The camp will take place June 13 to June 30, Monday-Thursday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Campers will be immersed in all facets of learning: How to create their own business, deal with money, research colleges, and even create their own nutritional menu. Mentors and sponsors of the program will serve as guest speakers to share their advice and experiences with the students.
With lots of fun and hands-on learning, this camp will be located at Booker Middle School. Campers will also spend Thursdays around Sarasota on field trips relating to that week’s focus. The final day of camp culminates in a talent show put on by the campers. Each camper will share a poem, article, skit, rap or dance that they put together during camp. We invite you to join!
We wanted to give a quick thank you to all of our guest speakers! This camp would not be taking place without you. :)
