coordinator.<\/p><p>\u201cSeeing the smiling faces of children arriving and leaving never gets old,\u201d Lowerre said. \u201cI began doing this to give parents a place where their child was well cared-for and would have an amazing summer using their hands and imagination.<\/p><p>\u201cSince I continue to meet new families and welcome back returning families, I know we are offering incredible child programming.\u201d<\/p><p>First-graders attending Lost in Space can explore planets, the moon and outer space phenomena, build rockets and launch water rockets.<\/p><p>Second- through fourth-graders attending Outdoor Adventures can learn to plant a garden, examine insects and create responsive volcanoes.<\/p><p>Fifth- through eighth-graders attending Creative Writing can learn different techniques and create a journal with entries such as an autobiography, poetry and collaborative screen writing.<\/p><p>Creative and Curious will be available to second- through eighth-graders \u201cwho do not want to focus on a specialized area,\u201d Lowerre said. The camp features cooking, outdoor games, robotics, crafts, STEM challenges, LEGOS and nature adventures.<\/p><h3>\u201cEvery day is different\u201d<\/h3><p>\u201cWe offered this a few years back (for) one week and a student said, \u2018I wish every week was like this week,\u2019\u201d Lowerre said. \u201cEvery day is different.\u201d<\/p><p>Twelve camps are available for first-graders; and 18 for second- through fourth-graders and for fifth- through eighth-graders.<\/p><p>Joining Creative Writing as a new camp are Tower Design, Sink or Float, Storm Chasers, Shorinji Kempo and Board Game Design.<\/p><p>Survivor, Game On and Mixed Media Art Studio are among returning favorites, Lowerre said, because \u201cwhat we find from most children is that four days is never enough, so when they find something they love they want to do it again and again.\u201d<\/p><p>\u201cWhether we offer something new or bring back a returning favorite, all of our camps our new because we change the activities, and new staff members bring in a fresh spin on lesson plans,\u201d Lowerre said.<\/p><p>Morning care is offered from 7:30 a.m. to 9 a.m. and afternoon care is available from 4 p.m. to 5 p.m. Morning care costs $30 per week and afternoon care, $20 per week.<\/p><p>Morning and afternoon snacks are provided, but children may also bring their own snacks. First-graders who attend morning and afternoon camps, and second- through eighth-graders should pack a lunch.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Butler, PA) Children attending Butler County Community College\u2019s 2023 summer enrichment program can pick from weekly camps whose themes range from outer space to plant life or, with Creative and [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":18630,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_price":"","_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_header":"","_tribe_default_ticket_provider":"TEC\\Tickets\\Commerce\\Module","_tribe_ticket_capacity":"0","_ticket_start_date":"","_ticket_end_date":"","_tribe_ticket_show_description":"","_tribe_ticket_show_not_going":false,"_tribe_ticket_use_global_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_global_stock_level":"","_global_stock_mode":"","_global_stock_cap":"","_tribe_rsvp_for_event":"","_tribe_ticket_going_count":"","_tribe_ticket_not_going_count":"","_tribe_tickets_list":"[]","_tribe_ticket_has_attendee_info_fields":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[215],"tags":[279,267,303,261],"post_folder":[],"ticketed":false,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news.bc3.edu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18629"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news.bc3.edu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news.bc3.edu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.bc3.edu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.bc3.edu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18629"}],"version-history":[{"count":20,"href":"https:\/\/news.bc3.edu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18629\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":18659,"href":"https:\/\/news.bc3.edu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18629\/revisions\/18659"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.bc3.edu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/18630"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news.bc3.edu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18629"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.bc3.edu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=18629"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.bc3.edu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=18629"},{"taxonomy":"post_folder","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.bc3.edu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/post_folder?post=18629"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
