Talent Show Tuesday

At Camp ASCCA, Tuesday means talent show! Every Tuesday we hold our talent show which gives campers the opportunity to show off their unique talents. This week we had our largest talent show line up yet with around fifty acts. Performances included everything from solos, group acts, a lightsaber battle, and a showing of a cross-stitch masterpiece!

ASCCA Achievements for the Win!

At ASCCA, we have something called ASCCA Achievements. These are awards given by program staff to campers who came to their programs and showed great enthusiasm, courage, or excelled that day! Some campers may earn them from overcoming their fear of something, while others might earn it by encouraging their friends who are nervous to try something new.
