Duration: 3 hours (open house)
Ages: 6 to 16
Led by: Locally Crafted Workshop (@createatlocallycrafted)
If you’ve got a kid (ages 6 to 16) who’s headed to sleepaway camp this summer, send them to us get ready with a few hours of crafty camp DIYs. Whether your camper is a seasoned sleepaway veteran or a slightly apprehensive first-timer, they’ll love getting in the summer mindset while crafting a few fun and useful items for their time away.
** This is an open house event, from 5 to 8 p.m., but we ask that your child arrive no later than 7 in order to complete all the projects. Parents are welcome to drop off or stay and watch the fun. Tickets must be purchased in advance; no tickets will be available at the door. **
Campers will visit craft stations where they can:
Embellish a picture frame and hair clip with beads and trinkets.
Decorate their own stationery set to make letters home a lot cuter.
Visit our Patch Bar to personalize a pouch for holding necessities and treasures.
Make camp-themed flair buttons to share with bunkmates (up to 15 included; additional available for purchase).
Customize a clipboard for letter-writing sessions.
Bead their own bracelets to wear at camp or share with friends.
When you register, there will be a chance to tell us your camp name, colors, ZIP code or anything else that can help us offer customization options. Share as much or as little as you like.
