Though many of our traditional two-week sessions are full, we still have space in some of our teen programs and specialty camps. For teens, we have spaces in both of our Junior Counselor sessions for boys. We also have space in our second Outdoor Leadership Course, which runs from August 4th through the 17th. You can learn more about the Junior Counselor program here, and our Outdoor Leadership Course here. We also have space in our Mini Camp program, which is a one-week program. Mini Camp is a great opportunity to experience Gold Arrow Camp in a shorter format, or to get a last burst of positivity before you head back to school! More details about Mini Camp are available here.
At GAC, we love the Poetry Corner. One of our favorite parts of PoCo is the reading of haikus. Haikus are poems that are three lines long, with the first line having 5 syllables, the second line having 7 syllables, and the third line having 5 syllables. So we're going to have a contest! Just send your best camp-related haiku to us (mail@goldarrowcamp.com) by Monday, April 15th. We'll share the best camp-themed haikus on Wednesday, April 17th. Why the 17th? Because it's National Haiku Day, that's why! We can't think of a better way to celebrate haikus than by sharing our favorites, and we can't wait to read your haikus!
We're thrilled to offer online Q & A sessions with camp directors. There will be two opportunities for you to join us virtually to discuss any questions you have about camp for 2019. These discussions are tailored to first-year families, but anyone with questions is welcome to attend. The meetings will be hosted on zoom and we ask that you RSVP if you intend to join us. There will be a short presentation followed by an opportunity for you to ask questions and have them answered by experienced camp directors. The first online Orientation and Q & A will be on Wednesday, May 15th at 7 PM Pacific time. The second event will be on Sunday, June 2nd at 4 PM Pacific. If you are interested in attending, please RSVP at this link. While you're there, you can also RSVP for our GAC Parties in Northern and Southern California.
