Downtown Day Camp Open House
Tuesday, February 12 at 6pm

Traditional Day Camp experience right here in the city for children entering Kindergarten through 6th Grade.

Have your questions answered and meet the director of the Downtown Day Camp. There is no need to sign up; just show up. Sessions are about 45 minutes and start on time. Kids are invited, but the discussion is often boring for younger campers.

Open Houses are held at P.S. 234 (292 Greenwich St, between Warren and Chambers) Open houses will also be held on March 11 and April 1 (no foolin'!).

Poly Prep
Saturday, February 9 at 9am

On a 25-acre Brooklyn campus, children participate in activities ranging from swimming to softball, from cookouts to ceramics, from picnics by the ponds to performances on stage.

Two Summer Program Open Houses are scheduled for 2008, the first for Saturday, February 9, and the second for Saturday, April 12. Both Open Houses run from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM. Children are welcome. No RSVP required.
