Summer Opportunities
SCS Summer Young Writers Camp
Do you love to write? I mean, do you really love to write -- poetry, short stories, and other creative writing? If so, consider the SCS Summer Young Writers Camp for students grades 7-12. The writing camp is facilitated by Mr. Anspaugh, SMS library media specialist, and Mrs. McIntire, SMS language arts teacher, and will be June 12-23 from 9 AM to 12 PM. This is the 14th year for the writing camp, and this year's theme has a sci-fi, time machine twist to it -- Back to the Writing Camp 2 (Part 1 was back in 2015!). The camp meets Monday through Friday for two weeks culminating with the Writers' Celebration on the last Friday. The camp is $30, which includes all materials, snacks, T-shirt, and a field trip to the canal and Indianapolis Historical Society. Campers will write creative writing like poetry, fiction, and non-fiction pieces (no essays!), and have lots of fun doing it. Camp is limited to the first twenty-five students to register. If you are interested, but you are unable to attend both weeks or some days, we will send out what we do for the days you are gone. Please send any questions you may have to Mr. Anspaugh (jtanspaugh@shelbycs.org), and he will send you a registration form.
