Do I need to call someone if my child is going to be absent?
Tardiness and absenteeism crucially effects the quality of our show. Putting a show together in such a short period time truly requires team work and when one of our team members is missing it effects everyone.

Food will NOT be provided. All students are asked to bring a bagged lunch/snacks with beverages water and sports drinks are best . Soda and Juice are not allowed

How does Summer Theatre Camp handle casting?
At NHAOPA we feel there are "no small parts only small actors". Each and every person is important to the success of our show! Each child will have the opportunity to audition for our casting directors.Some young actors are anxious to play the lead role, and some are happy to have a smaller part.

BRIEF CAMP DESCRIPTION: Not a great dancer? No worries, your robot companion will learn the moves for you. You'll use a Spike Prime and it’s drag and drop programming code to design and command a Lego Robot. While our primary goal is to have fun, during the week you will come to understand computational thinking and develop strategies for problem solving. Hands-on access to a robot will allow you to experience real challenges and learn there is often more than one solution to a problem. You will get a quick lesson on part names and uses, an overview of the code, build a basic robot and re-design it to perform your dance moves. You might think dancing is simple, but your robot will gather data from sensors, respond to input, and complete challenges that test you and your partner’s skills. We hope you develop a lifelong love of robots!

CAMP PROGRAM INFO: Active Learning Services, Ltd operates enrichment programs designed to stimulate creative thinking, improve thinking, logic and memory skills and give children "thinking alternatives" to sports camps and other summer programs. Our programs include chess programs and camps thru USA Chess, Our Gamebuilder Video Game Creation Programs and our Active Learning Computer Enrichment Programs.
Our staff is, comprised of the best children's chess instructors in North America! The USA Chess camps are uniquely qualified to cater to the needs of the advanced scholastic player as well as the true beginner. USA Chess hit its first milestone in the summer of 2000 producing the largest chess camp ever held in the United States, with more than 250 students enrolled. What was most surprising, however, was the amount of absolute beginners in attendance - more than 50% of the total enrollment was just starting to play chess. This realization led to the national rollout tour of 100 camps in more than 70 cities. The annual tours have been immensely successful with several thousand campers attending this year alone.
USA Chess thrives on providing a structured environment that is extremely conducive to learning chess. We handpick the best children's chess instructors from all over the United States and bring them to each camp. We believe our team is most effective in teaching chess to children of all ages and levels. The exceptional organization and ever-fun curriculum has fueled much interest from scholastic players and coaches from around the country, prompting them to request USA Chess camps in their areas.
At the same summer camp locations, we also offer the immensely popular Gamebuilder Video Game Creation Camps, The Active Learning Computer Animation Programs, and other Computer Enrichment Programs such as Modding, Networking and Hosting with Minecraft. We now offer seven unique programs in all.
At these camps, children are assigned a computer for the week; they spend the week learning to create their own one-of- a- kind video games in our Gamebuilder Camps, Animation Projects in our Animation Camps, also Modding, Networking and Hosting with Minecraft.
