Craftsman & Apprentice

What's your favorite memory from Summer Camp?

I always tell the kids, I only invite really nice kids to come to Craftsman. The ethos of C&A is to help kids learn to be responsible for themselves and for others. We expect all children to be kind, take responsibility for their messes (literally and figuratively), collaborate, and solve problems with respect and care for one another. Plus, we have a great staff who are well-versed in supporting kids with a variety of needs.
