Blue Skies Arts Camp 2014

Jul 30, 2014

Campers and staff at this year’s Blue Skies Arts Camp joined forces for an end of the week show highlighting the activities they took part in during their five-day camp experience. The camp is run by Blue Skies In The Community and is an annual day camp located in Clarendon. Over 50 campers between the ages 7 and 13 attended it this year.

Friends and families filled the area in front of the camp’s main stage for the show, which was emceed by the always entertaining Teilhard Frost, a professional musician and this year’s camp band instructor. The choir section featured a song called “Benjy met the Bear” an rather gruesome tale of a young boy’s misadventure. The song went as follows: “Benjy met the bear, the bear met Benjy, the bear was bulging, the bulge was Benjy!”

The children were thoroughly entertained by it, to say the least. The show included dance, songs, a fashion show, a play and more.The camp activities were headed up by a number of talented local artists including Isidora Spielmann, Teilhard Frost, Rachael McDonald, Bridget Way-Brackenbury, and Josh Lyon and Corky Peppley leading workshops in costume making, choir and band, drama, dance, and multi-media arts. The show wrapped up what camp director, Susan Walker, called another “fun and enjoyable camp season” at Blue Skies.
