The Breitmayer Community Ministry of Grace United Methodist Church, in conjunction with Hamilton Community School, provides a summer day camp program at Grace for children ages 3-13.
The program this summer will consist of two three-week sessions: Session I: June 20-July 8 and Session II: July 11-July 29.
It will operate Monday through Friday from 9:00am to 4:00pm with some extended hours available. Enrollment will be limited to 54 students. Two administrators, four professional teachers, and several assistants will teach and supervise the children.
The Breitmayer Board and other interested persons have been meeting monthly since last fall to discuss ways in which the program could be revamped and improved.
The program will be directed this summer by Paulette Ajavon, student minister at Grace.
The program will emphasize the uniqueness of each individual and will use an introduction to various cultures as an approach to removing barriers, stereotypes and prejudices. Children will also receive instruction in conflict resolution as part of the program. Weekly field trips will be used to emphasize the culture or region being studied that week. Teachers are being sought who are enthusiastic about the program.
Most of the children come from Skinker DeBaliviere, near the church.
The cost of the program is $40 per week for the first child and $30 per week for a second child.
