The Program:
Focus: The SPY program reaches out to children who have been identified by their school guidance counselors as pupils who need structure and educational enrichment during the summer. A staff of counselors, supported by church and community volunteers, creates a warm, supportive environment for the SPY campers.
Activities: SPY campers enjoy educational activities, arts and crafts, recreational games and a well balanced meal. Field trips in and around town and afternoons at the Carlisle Pool are scheduled weekly.
Staff: The SPY program is staffed by a director, a children's coordinator and counselors. Staff opportunities also exist for a college or university internship / practicum and for high school students as volunteer Counselors-in-Training. The staff members are elementary school teachers, guidance counselors and college students with experience and/or training in meeting the needs of the campers.
