Many Lake Tahoe summer camps have started registration for summer 2009 sessions. There are quite a few summer camps that call Lake Tahoe their home; this is the first in a series of articles featuring each camp.
Midsummer's Camp is a one or two week summer camp program offered by the Lake Tahoe Shakespeare Festival. This is a day camp (9a to 3p.) for kids between the ages of 8 and 18 years of age. "Campers" explore the history and language of Shakespeare; building a character, voice, and acting techniques through work with scenes from several Shakespeare classics.
Camp instructors are both seasoned professionals and experienced arts
educators, trained to enrich each child's experience. The camp is held on the North Shore of Lake Tahoe, at the Donald W. Reynolds Foundation Community Non-Profit Center in Incline Village. Campers' efforts at camp culminate in a performance the Saturday following camp.
