Camp Wornall/Majors – A Day in the Life: Civil War Solider
July 14, 2023 @ 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm
$25Camp Wornall/Majors is back for summer 2023! Campers will explore a different historic theme each Friday from June to the first week of August. We are bringing back some old favorites as well as introducing four new themes. The three-hour sessions are jam-packed with multi-disciplinary activities including games, crafts, simulations, and expert visits. We aim for the elementary–age campers to have so much fun they won’t realize how much they’re learning. We can’t wait to see all the old and new faces.
