SCHEDULE OF 2012 SUMMER CAMPS: Please see below or visit www.westbrookcommunitycenter.org.

Registration Fee = $120 per week per child Teen Adventure Summer Camp Last summer, the Westbrook Community Center put together a Teen Adventure Camp geared towards teenagers in grades 6, 7, 8 and 9. The premise of the program was to provide campers with an experience that appealed to persons of their age, maturity and interest. Campers made expedition trips to Emerald Pool and Magic Falls for whitewater rafting. The program tried to structure the every-day activities around the need for ‘independence’, yet still have the supervision piece that is necessary. We'd like to give you better detail about what we are planning to do for Teen Adventure Camp this summer, which will run from June 25-August 17. First and foremost is to design and carry out a camp that has teens outside and involved in every-day adventures – such as Cairn’s Leadership School, kayaking and hiking. We still plan to do community service at the free lunch site on Reserve Street and engage in games and activities at the fields and outdoor pool. But, because of space issues at the Westbrook Community Center, we've decided to find additional space for our teenagers, and thus approached Mission Possible Teen Center about utilizing their space for some of our activities and as a possible ‘base camp’. Campers would have a defined, dedicated space there that would allow them to utilize a full kitchen, meet in an air-conditioned space that is centrally located so that they can walk to some of their adventures and, at times, utilize their computer lab, ping pong and billiards tables. Mission Possible IS a drop-in center for teenagers in Westbrook. However, Teen Adventure Camp is a supervised, separate program from that. Counselors – led by veteran staffer Tyler Crosby as the Teen Adventure Camp Supervisor, will be with the campers and supervise all programming. Campers won’t be utilizing the Teen Center as a ‘drop-in’ facility. In fact, the drop-in center is not open until 12:30 pm and our programming will have campers out of the building by that time (except for rainy days). The plan is to start camp each morning at the Westbrook Community Center, depart for Mission Possible at 8:30 am, make breakfast as a group in their kitchen, and go over the day's Road Map. At the end of the day, campers will return to Mission Possible and be available for pick-up between 4-5:30 pm. Lunch and snacks for campers will be provided each day. We think this a unique, positive opportunity for the teenagers of our community and we are greatly looking forward to its implementation this summer!
