The Korean Culture Camp of Eastern Michigan (KCC) is a non-profit summer day camp run by the parents of children they've adopted from Korea. The camp, held one week each summer, teaches the children about their Korean heritage, and allows them to meet other Korean children and make new friends.

The camp will be held from June 22-26, 2009 at St. Thomas Aquinas School in East Lansing, Michigan (915 Alton Rd., East Lansing, MI 48823). The camp runs from 9:30 am to 3:00 pm each day.

The camp is open to children from age three through high school. The children participate in activities such as crafts, music, Korean language, taekwondo and art. A Korean lunch is provided to the campers each day.

Korean-American college students act as counselors for each class. Each preschooler must have a parent acting as a classroom volunteer in the same preschool classroom.

KCC 2009 is pleased to announce two special additions. We welcome back Kim HyungJoo, traditional and modern Korean Artist. HyungJoo will be teaching Korean language and rice paper embossing.

We will also have specific class times set up for your children to get meaningful hands-on experience with Korean cultural activities (e.g., games, history lessons, songs and the Korean alphabet called Hangul).
