WELCOME to the 2008 CAMP!

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 adoptees and make new friends.

This year the camp will be held from June 23-27 at Elms Elementary School. The camp, held in Flushing, Michigan, near Flint, runs from 9:00 am to 2:00 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. 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.

High school students who have attended the camp previously may be junior counselors (JCs) or counselors-in-training (CITs), aiding the counselors in their classrooms. JCs and CITs can look forward to receiving 15 certified volunteer hours of community service (required by many colleges, universities and high school clubs).

KCC 2008 is pleased to announce two special additions. Well-known author, educator and adoptive parent Anne Sibley O’Brien will facilitate discussions about such topics as Korean culture, heritage, language, identity and diversity. Anne will be providing age-specific programs for pre-school to 12th grade campers.  For more information about Anne please see her website: www.AnneSibleyOBrien.com. We also welcome back Kim HyungJoo, traditional and modern Korean Artist. HyungJoo will be spending the entire week at KCC to teach Korean language and rice paper embossing.

In addition we are excited to announce our new Teen Program, which is designed specifically for students in grades 9 through 12. One of the activities for this group is an overnight lock-in. The excellent resources brought by Anne Sibley O’Brien and Kim HyungJoo will also enhance the Teen Program.
