Kindercamp

YES Foundation's KinderCamp finds a home at UM-Dearborn's Environmental Interpretive Center

Kindercamp is an action-packed learning experience for at-risk Kindergarten students in the Detroit area.  Located at the UM-D’s Environmental Study Center, the camp emphasizes reading literacy with an environmental focus.  Each week the children immerse themselves, coached by their Teacher and student teaching assistants, in a project emphasizing a literature-rich theme.  Kindercamp operates June 25th thru August 3rd M-F with Fridays reserved for field trips including a study tour of the Environmental Study Area organized by the staff and faculty of the Environmental Study Center
