Join me for a Creative Writing Summer Camp designed for students in the 3rd–5th grades! Whether your child loves crafting stories, inventing characters, or exploring new worlds through words, this camp is the perfect place to spark their creativity.
This camp is for kids who like to write—messy handwriting? No problem. Grades? Don’t matter. But if writing sounds like a chore, this probably isn’t the camp for you.
📅 Dates: July 13–17
⏰ Time: 1:00 PM – 4:00 PM
📍 Location: TBD (likely Woodbury Library, depending on group size)
💲 Cost: $250 for the week
Spots are limited! If you're interested or have questions, reach out to Meegan_epps@dpsk12.net! ✨
