St. Margaret’s School’s ‘Summer on the River’ Camp Registration Now Open!
Educational, river-centric camp led by VAIS Teacher of the Year Richard Moncure
(Tappahannock, Va.) - Summer is coming; spend it on the river! Registration is now open for St. Margaret’s School’s “Summer on the River” camp. Open to boys and girls ages 10-15, the camp will be led by Richard Moncure, S.T.R.E.A.M. Director at St. Margaret’s and the 2022 Virginia Association Independent Schools Teacher of the Year. S.T.R.E.A.M. is the school’s one-of-a-kind curriculum that integrates the nearby River and natural surroundings with STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math) learning.
Campers will ‘learn by doing’ with action-packed days filled with research and plenty of fun. A typical day will include pulling crab pots, identifying river species, sailing, riding jet skis, swimming, and more.
Families can sign up for any of the four 1-week sessions: June 24-28, July 8-12, July 15-19, or July 22-26. Space is limited to 20 campers per week! Families can reserve their spot online: www.sms.org/camps. Sessions are $600/week, and shuttle service is available in Fredericksburg, Mechanicsville, and Kilmarnock, VA (fees apply).
