What an amazing StarPower experience we had this summer! Our campers were fantastic! Collectively we set a creative vision, established goals, worked hard, and played even harder! We couldn’t be prouder of their accomplishments as an artist, playwright, song writer and a performer. All 31 of our campers collaborated to create an original musical production! AMAZING!
Our final week at StarPower was spent doing all sorts of amazing, fun awesomeness! We rehearsed hard and put the final touches on our spectacular performance.
One of the most touching things about this group was the bonds they made and the ongoing support they had towards one another. I believe setting our intentions, infusing mindfulness and making meaningful connections while tapping into our campers’ creativity and passion was key to our success.
Our final carnival day at camp was a blast! We created acrylic paintings on canvas, played acting games and did Broadway trivia. We also face painted and spent the afternoon outside enjoying our new pool with all sorts of waterslides and swimming fun! We ended our last day of camp with our traditional appreciation and closing circle with time for us all to put closure and say “until next summer” to all our amazing friends!
Mark your calendars! If you loved Camp StarPower, then you will enjoy many of our fall classes and our Spring Production too.

Many of our camp specialty staff will be returning to lead classes and workshops in the Fall and for our Winter/Spring Main Stage Production and they are thrilled to have the chance to be reunited with our campers.
Thank you for the opportunity to lead your child through the past two weeks. It was an honor and we can’t wait to see them soon! If you have any questions about Fall Classes or our Winter/Spring production, I am here to help.
