WHAT ARE MERMAID ART & SWIM CAMPS?
These very special boutique camps can be viewed more as an amazing creative retreat, rather than a large bustling camp. Pam's beautiful studio at The Third Street Center in Carbondale is perfect for children who benefit from a creative and calm space with a small group of friends. A great opportunity for kids to do mermaid art projects, and then to cool off and play at the pool! FYI: Pam is a resident of RVR and children who aren't also residents will go as Pam's pool guests.

THIS SUMMER'S THEME: Under The Sea
This summer we're focusing on, The Little Mermaid, and in particular the beautiful and colorful song, Under The Sea, from the latest movie.
Projects include: Amazing 3-layer underwater worlds for our little mermaids and friends, sunken treasure chests, under-the-sea stationary, watercolor journals and more. Camps are small (no more than 5 kids in each) so everyone gets plenty of space to create, tons of one-on-one guidance, top notch materials, fun mermaid surprises, pool entry and a sweet snack at the pool. This camp is a very special treat!! It's a vacation!!

Mermaid Camps are for kids who are comfortable in the water and have had some swimming instruction. RVR has a lifeguard and Pam will also be supervising BUT she will not be able to focus on just one child.
