    Name: Our World is Global Village Camp
    Date: July 28, 2014 - August 1, 2014
    Event Description:
    Explore the world with globe trekker Melanie Marks, of Longwood University’s College of Business & Economics. Campers will “travel” to Africa, Europe, Asia, and Central America to learn about the global village in which we all live. Imagine making your own butter for an English tea party (and having to speak with an English accent!), creating a S’mores factory with chocolate made from African cocoa beans, barter trading like they would in a Burmese hill tribe community, carrying buckets of water on your head like they do in Uganda, learning what life was like if you lived behind the Iron Curtain in Europe, making fruit kabobs like you could be served in the forests of Africa, making tie-dye shirts using bright African colors, learning how to use chopsticks and then using them in chopsticks relays, making Thai spring rolls, and participating in a Limbo competition. There is just too much to list. Be assured that every day of camp will be action packed, educational, and a great deal of fun. Daily activities include international-themed cooking, crafts, videos, games, and children’s literature selections, plus outdoor activities so that campers can enjoy the summer weather.

    *This camp is open to children who will be going into grade levels 2-7 next fall.
    Location:
    Hiner Building, Longwood University
