The summer camp accepted over 50 children age 6 and above since it commenced last Monday. The current location for the sports are the Gilbert C. Ada Gymnasium, the Oleai sports complex, and the Franciso M. Palacios baseball field.
There are three different groups for the entire summer camp so that the event runs smoothely for the children and the coordinators as well. Group A is composed of children who are 6, 7, and 8 years old. Group B is composed of children who are 9 and 10 years old. This group only had to age brackets because most of the children were accommodated by this age group. Group C is composed of children who are 11, 12, and 13 years old.
The sports that are included in the summer camp are basketball, soccer, softball, volleyball, tee ball (for the younger children), track and field, swimming, and canoeing.
For the second week of the camp, starting August 16, 2010 Group A is scheduled to try weaving, bead making, and dancing. Group B is scheduled to try bead making, dancing, and knot tying. And Group C is scheduled to try out dancing, knot tying, and paper weaving.
On August 17, 2010 all of the groups are scheduled to go across the street from the Ada gym to the big pavilion (Minachom Atdao) to try out swimming and canoeing.
On August 18, 2010 Group A and B are scheduled to have a CPA field trip. Meanwhile Group C, D, and E are scheduled to go to the Calabera Cave/Pau Pau Beach. On Thursday it will be the same place but the groups will switch so that everyone will obtain the best experience and knowledge about both trips.
On August 20, 2010 there will be a lot of presentations set for the children for their environment awareness, safety awareness, and entertainment. The DPS Dare Program will do a presentation followed by the Domestic Violence Prevention team, followed by the Fire Prevention team, and last but not least the Customs K-9 will be there.
On the final day of camp on August 21, 2010 there will be a Family Fun day held at the beach across the street from 8-11:30 AM. The chairman for this entire camp is Joe Mettao.
