Dear Families, 

Summer is almost here and we are excited to share our Virtual Summer Camp Adventure, a very special program for all children this summer. We will be kicking it off on June 21, 2021 at https://bit.ly/3ci8XAH .

GWA Library Virtual Summer Camp Adventure is a ten-week virtual camp with five bi-weekly themes around different themes. 

We will celebrate Fairy and Tall Tales, Imagination, Sports Tales, Scary Tales, Zoo Tales, graphic novels,  and Exotic Animals. Each of these camp themes will have a wonderful choice board filled with reading, learning, making, outside adventures, exercise, cooking, technology, and a library Challenge will be included with each camp.

Each choice board will also include lower and upper elementary FREE eBooks for summer reading, which will be available from June 21-August 30, 2021. There is something for everyone and for all ages, Pre-K to 6th grade.

To go along with each bi-weekly Virtual Summer Camp Adventure theme, students are encouraged to log in the books they read and take the different challenges to win prizes. This will inspire lots of ways our learners can create, write, research and share what they learn and read throughout the summer. 

Starting on June 21, 2021, your children can access the Virtual Summer Camp Adventure at https://bit.ly/3ci8XAH . They can check back throughout the summer for the bi-weekly choice boards and resources. They can also access Capstone interactive ebooks at https://bit.ly/3ib80xW (username: capstone camp, password: capstone).

We are so excited about this special summer adventure and we can’t wait for your children to take it with us too.  

Here’s to a happy and memorable summer full of adventures,
