AICL 2009 Summer Camp
Dear AICL Campers and Fans,
Since the summer of 1982, AICL has been helping creative and curious young people find ways to pursue their questions, discover their gifts, and make and deepen friendships with other young thinkers and dreamers. The staff of AICL has received feedback and new ideas from many of you, and in response has planned two one-week sessions for Summer 2009 that will be the best year at camp yet. Once again, we will hold camp in the friendly and beautiful campus of Warren Wilson College in Swannanoa, North Carolina. This year, we have been able to reserve laboratory and classroom space that ought to improve on our relatively cramped quarters last year. Campers may come for either one-week session, or both.
Knowing the challenge that the economy has placed on many families, we are glad to be able to charge only the low one-week rate of $490--by far, the lowest tuition we can find, compared to other residential academic and arts programs. Day-campers may attend for the low price of $250 per week. AICL has thrived through the balance of continuity and creative change. Many of our staff have been associated with AICL for over 15 years--a few, over 25 years. At the same time, our new staff infuses our programs with new ideas and energy. We get new ideas from parents, from campers, and from others whose heart is in encouraging young minds and lives to blossom.
If you have ideas or questions, we would love to hear from you at 1-800-951-7442, or info@applachianinstitute.org Our new curriculum will be posted at this web site on February 1st. For now, keep warm, keep creative, and keep in touch.
Take care,
Jake Morrill
Camp Director
