Camp sessions may be cut
More youths are needed to enroll for survival of two June programs
The Cincinnati Enquirer
COVINGTON Several June sessions of the Behringer-Crawford Museum's long-running summer camps may be canceled if enough youths don't sign up, organizers say.
At risk are the first session of the Junior Curator Program in Archaeology June 17-21 and June 24-26, and the June 12-21 Showboat Follies Theater Workshop, said Bethany Berlejung, the museum's education director. The programs run from 8:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.
We need at least seven or eight more (participants) for the showboat follies, and the first session of the junior curator program still needs several more sign-ups before we can offer it, Ms. Berlejung said.
The junior curator program, first offered in 1981, offers youths ages 11 to 16 the chance to take part in a real archaeological dig at Big Bone Lick State Park. Students spend the first week in the field excavating artifacts and the second week at the museum for lab work.
The Showboat Follies Theater Workshop runs June 12-21, excluding weekends, with a performance at 7 p.m. June 21.
Both workshops are $145 for nonmembers, $130 for members.
Other programs for youths include A.M. Adventures for ages 7 to 9, which teaches topics such as pioneer life through hands-on activities, and Grand Discovery Camps for ages 4 to 6.
For information on sessions, prices, or to register by phone, call (859) 491-4003.
