Camp Celebration!

Friday was the last day of Summer Camp at the Coleman Center! We kicked the day off with John, as they sang and filmed railroad songs on the caboose outside the Coleman Center gallery, a relic of York's railroad heyday. Campers sang "I've been working on the railroad," "O Susannah" and "Ballin' the Jack" like stage pros, weathering the bright sun and Alabama heat. Check out the Coleman Center on Vimeo to see the video!

Campers also spent Friday morning giving the sidewalk in front of the gallery some inspirational character, including inspirational messages from Terrell and his alter ego, Ryan Dunstan.

Campers went home at noon on Friday, so that Coleman Center staff could get ready for the Camp Celebration extravaganza. At 6 pm, campers came with their families to show off all the amazing work they did in the last two weeks. Self-portraits, animations, puppets, alter-egos and paper compositions were shown throughout the room. John and Kanita each led the campers in beautiful song.

Paris Heats and Rock Stars, we are so proud of all the work you made, performances you perfected, and friendships you formed! John, Catherine, Garland, Samita, Kanita, and Frances, we couldn't have done it without you! And thank you to all the campers, families and community members who made Summer Camp a success and a joy!

Signing out till next summer :)
