Camp Viva has been operating since 2014 as a summer camp for elementary and middle schoolers who have the power to craft their day. Children are able to focus on a core specialty— sports, crafts, painting, STEAM, or drama — and fill the rest of their day with fun activities from other specialties. This way, campers get a taste of everything and (hopefully) try new things!
Camp Viva's mission can be broken into three distinct goals:
To provide a safe environment where children feel comfortable trying new things.
To create a fun atmosphere where positive social skills are modeled and practiced.
To encourage the belief in the Growth Mindset: all children are capable of acquiring new skills by working hard, having fun and learning from each new experience.
