This camp is a "live-action history" program that will follow the story of the Seminole Wars in Florida during the 1800s. Participants will be encouraged to portray characters from both sides as we reenact key events from this historic episode. This program blends classroom antics and field games with art projects and storytelling to present a high-energy experience that is both educational and fun.
