Avery County 4H & SOS Program Wraps Up

Dawn and I just finished 2 camp programs in Newland, NC.  Mornings were spent working with sixteen 9-12 year olds developing juggling skills, sculpting balloons, and mastering magical sleights.  Their energy and enthusiasm for the Variety Arts was refreshing.

Each afternoon we worked with middle schoolers enrolled in the SOS (Support Our Students) program. This group of 9 impressed us with their focus developing their juggling chops, their entertaining magical performances, and their support and compassion for each other.  The camp was modified to include Twist & Earn! , an entrepreneurial program for young adults.  Each camper left at the end of the week with everything needed to start a small business twisting balloons!
