1/23/09 Today's Greenwich Post Press Release



The Greenwich High School PTA will host its annual SummerFare Camp Expo on Wednesday, Jan. 28, from 6 to 9 p.m. in the school’s student center. The event will showcase more than 130 summer programs for middle and high school students.

Program representatives will be on hand to discuss their summer opportunities with parents and their children. Families may pick up camp brochures and DVDs, and speak with program administrators to explore their summertime options.

From local programs to more exotic ventures across the globe, SummerFare features an array of organizations that offer something for just about everyone — from sailing through the Caribbean to learning a new language to traditional sleep away or day camps. Also featured are programs for sports training, adventure travel, community service, performing and visual arts, and educational endeavors at home and abroad. Many programs plan varying schedules, from two weeks to the entire summer vacation.

SummerFare is designed to beat the rush on camp sign-ups as spring approaches and programs fill up quickly.

This year marks the 20th year that the Greenwich High School PTA is sponsoring SummerFare, one of the school’s largest community service events. This year’s event is chaired by Greenwich High School parents Julie Chien, Marlene Gilbert and Mamie Lee.

The event is free of charge and open to the public. Refreshments will be for sale.

The snow date is Thursday, Jan. 29, from 6 to 9 p.m.
