AFTERSCHOOL AMPLIFIED

Afterschool Amplified

Camp Tekoa's Afterschool program offers skill-based classes/workshops throughout the school year in addition to our normal afterschool activities. Classes we have offered in the past include climbing, cooking, mountain biking, textile crafting, photography, paddling, cooking with fire and more!

How does it work?

Campers will attend afterschool like normal, but then will join their class from 4:00-5:00 each day of instruction. The cost for the session of classes is in addition to normal afterschool fees.

Each class will have up to 12 campers. Campers will be with mixed ages and will participate and learn according to their own comfort, ability, and skill level.
