Last year's Themes at Catskill Woodland Camp were:
Beginnings/Gardening Hiking/Journeys Cirque de Woodland Fine Arts and Theater Week Classic Camp Week Global Village Positive Change/ Community Building
This year, we are planning to fit all 7 fantastic themes into 2 weeks of camp, all through the adventure of co-creating an original stage production of The Extraordinary Adventures of Harold and the Purple Crayon!
We will use our outdoor time in the garden and hiking, to provide inspiration and adventure ideas for our story. We will practice both circus and performance arts to weave together a magical, dynamic production. Working with professional artists, we will channel our fine arts projects toward designing stunning visual effects for the show. We will interactively learn about and incorporate cultural themes in the play and utilize positive change and community building through our community outreach projects throughout Phoenicia, as we lure our audience to attend the final performance! And of course, we will weave in classic camp activities such as team games, water games, sports and festive celebrations, so that our summer camp program is complete!
