You are invited to join us as we read Skeleton Creek by Patrick Carman in this exciting literary camp.  Campers will experience this book in a unique and thrilling manner, reading the words of a young boy’s journal, and watching corresponding videos that the students unlock with passwords given throughout the book. We will work together to solve the mystery presented in this suspenseful story, write in our own personal journals and engage in themed activities.  

*Some videos may be frightening for certain children.  A few of the videos feature a phantom.  Please call to learn more about the contents of the videos if you have any concerns.
