Language Camp

Grades 1-9 Cranberry TWP Language Study, Swimming, Cooking, Canoeing and MORE

April 23, 2015
Come join us for a fantastic experience, learning a world language in a fun setting!  The week-long overnight camp at Family Retreat Center in Cranberry Township offers swimming, cooking, canoeing, crafts, soccer, volleyball, archery, ping pong, basketball, and an obstacle course.

Sleeping cabins are only 9 years old.  Certified instructors and language majors help children in grades 1-9 begin their language study or advance their skills.  Hearing the language spoken throughout each day and being challenged to speak the language during activities, large and small group sessions, and mealtimes make this the best way to learn a language!  It’s almost like being in the foreign country!
