The Castle will be presenting an All Ages History Camp on Feb. 1 with the theme Defining America 1940 – 1960’s.
In just one day, explore the events of 1940-1960 including the difficulties of World War II and the movements, change and scientific breakthroughs marking the 1950s and 1960s.
A morning and an afternoon session are available, each offering different content and activities. You can sign up for both at a discounted rate. The morning session includes three classes about the impact of WWII to U.S. soldiers and civilians on the homefront. The afternoon session offers three classes about movements, culture, and scientific breakthroughs of the 1950s. In each session, attendees will rotate through all three activities offered.
The featured activities expand on selected favorites from the previous summer’s History Camp for third through sixth graders. This camp is designed to interest all ages and for cross generational learning experiences!
The camp is recommended for ages 10 and above. Reservations required by Tuesday, Jan. 28.
The fee is $30/session; $55/both sessions. Space is limited.
