Ashland Museum will hold a History Camp for rising 5th and 6th graders, August 12 through 16, 2013. The hours of the camp will be 1 pm to 5 pm except for Friday, when we will have an all-day field trip to Washington’s Smithsonian via Amtrak.  Among the other activities planned are a telegraph and Morse code demonstration and a trip to the North Anna Battlefield Park. Camp Director is Rhonda L. Toussaint. For more details and to register, download & print the History Camp information and registration form (PDF).

The cost is $150 per child, and $125 for members with an Ashland Museum Family Membership or higher. A $50 deposit is due by July 29, 2013, and balance of tuition ($100/$75) and all paperwork are due by August 5, 2013. Parents will also want to supply a small amount of spending money for occasional trips to Cross Brothers for snacks or lunch at the Smithsonian on Friday.
