“HERITAGE QUEST”
SUMMER DAY CAMP

The Trinity Historical Society is pleased to offer a day camp for youth this summer. The 8 week program will run from July 6^th until August 27^th for two half days per week (exception is the week of August 16^th – 20^th: just one session that week). The overall theme of the camp is history based, with hands on activities to help bring the past to life. Each week has a different theme and centers around specific aspects of life in the past. Recommended age group is 7-15. Pre-registration is preferred as various materials will be needed and the number of participants will need to be known in advance. The fee for each session is $10/day. You may register for individual sessions or pre-register for the entire summer for a cost of $120. If registering for each session separately, we ask that you do so by Friday of the previous week.
