Western Carolina University will host the sixth annual Cullowhee Creativity Camp from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. June 16-20.
Students from the Western North Carolina region in grades one through eight will attend the one-week camp in the Killian Building on the campus of WCU.
The purpose of the camp is to offer children an opportunity to engage in challenging but fun learning activities as a part of the “Creative Thinking and Problem Solving” course for teachers. Activities will include multimedia software, digital video recording, robotics and other technology courses. WCU education majors, graduate students and faculty members will facilitate the camp.
“Last year’s event was a big success, and we couldn’t accommodate all of the children who wanted to participate,” said Lisa Bloom, professor of human services. “We are looking forward to this year’s event.”
The program will cost $109 per student, which covers lunch, technology materials and books. All participants should apply by Friday, May 16, because of limited space. Discounts are available for additional family members and scholarships are available based on need.
