EDITOR’S NOTE

Happy April!

School will be out for the summer before we know it – and this month is an ideal time to sign up your child or teen for a day camp.

Luckily, there are plenty of options for parents to choose from in Central New York. On pages 19-25, you will find more than 40 of them, separated by category, in our annual directory. And keep checking our website, familytimescny.com; we will add to the list as more camps announce their plans for 2024.

My second favorite season, spring, is also here! On pages 16 and 17, Pam Molnar shares seven seasonal crafts you can create with your child. And, because many of them use materials you already have lying around the house or are planning to recycle, they’re a great way to celebrate Earth Day on April 22.

We hope you enjoy this issue!

Maha McCain, Director at Redhouse Arts Center

1. How were you hired to direct the advanced studies summer show at Redhouse?

I’ve had a relationship with the Redhouse Arts Center for almost 15 years as an actor. Recently, I started working there as a director. I’ve known their education director (Marguerite Mitchell) during all that time and just recently began working with their advanced studies summer camp. They have a wonderful education and outreach team at the Redhouse – very dedicated educators and teaching artists. Their goals are to place students in a rehearsal environment with working theater professionals to help build their confidence and experience.

Last year, we produced a high school version of the musical Rock of Ages. There was an added challenge of working with a live band in the pit. Working with the advanced studies students was a lot of fun. We had two weeks to mount the show from scratch, which is typical in the

summer camp theater world. The students attend camp every day, Monday through Friday, from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. There is a performance for the public on the last day of the camp. It was a challenge to move through the show that fast, but the students were up for it and learned everything quickly. They were smart, created characters with depth, and were passionate about their work. This made directing them easy and fun to do each day. I’m returning this summer to direct their advanced studies students again. I can’t wait to get started!

2. What is the most rewarding part of directing the summer show?

One of the biggest considerations when producing a show this quickly is making sure students feel challenged by the work so they can grow in their skill sets while giving them room to be a teenager and have fun. When they begin to positively push themselves and each other to work at the highest level of their intelligence, when they apply notes from a previous rehearsal to a new moment in rehearsal without being asked, when they ask to take part of their free time (like during a break or after lunch) to work on something from the show, that’s the most rewarding. When they begin to care personally about the show because they are proud of their work on it, that is the most rewarding part of directing their summer show.

3. Who can participate?

The advanced studies program is for teens ages 13 and up. The camp is best designed for teens with previous show experience, especially with prior musical theater experience.

Syracuse Fashion Week celebrates 10 years

For the past decade, fashion and philanthropy have come together at Syracuse Fashion Week.

Lisa Butler is the driving force behind the event. A clothing designer, she has owned shops in Manlius and downtown Syracuse, specializing in custom couture, special occasion gowns, and wedding gowns.

“My background is not only in design, but in theatre, so I love doing shows,” said Butler. “Back in 2010, somewhere around there, I started doing fashion shows for myself. During the shows, people would come up to me and say, ‘I’d like to join your show, I’m a designer or I have a small boutique.’ And I would say, ‘Of course, let’s do shows together!’ It organically grew from that.”

Not long after, she organized the very first Syracuse Style show, and, when that became “a big success,” it transitioned into a large outdoor show in Armory Square.

“We did those for a couple of years, then I said to myself, ‘Syracuse needs a fashion week,’” said Butler. “Rochester has a really successful one. Albany had a couple of small shows. Buffalo did. So, I put together a group of people, our first committee, at the end of 2013, and then we did our first

fashion week in the spring of 2014. That’s how it all started.”

Now held twice a year, Syracuse Fashion Week’s spring show is scheduled for April 11-13 (there is a description of each event in the box on the right). Tickets for all three can be purchased in advance on cnytix. com, but don’t wait too long; the underground show and the gala both sold out last year.

Beyond its glitz and glamour, Syracuse Fashion Week has remained committed to supporting the Food Bank of Central New York since its inception, with proceeds totaling more than $20,000.

“They come to the shows, and they give a small talk about the work they do and the need that is so crucial, especially now, in the community for their services,” said Butler. “It’s been a really nice partnership.”

Courtney Kless is the Editor in Chief of Family Times She lives in Camillus with her husband.

“The Syracuse Mets are thrilled to partner with the Wildcat for the 2024 season,” said General Manager Jason Smorol in a press release. “The Wildcat is a fantastic local restaurant that serves their community great food with great service. They will offer fans at NBT Bank Stadium the same delicious food with terrific customer service all season long.”

“We’re excited to kick off the summer festival season once again in Downtown Syracuse,” said Carrie Wojtaszek, Galaxy Media chief operating officer, in a press release. “We stand by our message that no matter what you’re looking for, musically or food-wise, we truly can say we’ve got it at the Taste of Syracuse! We’re also thrilled to be raising awareness and funds for both Griffin’s Guardians and Paige’s Butterfly Run.”

How Teens Can Finish Senior Year of High School Strong

My teenage son has come down with a curious affliction. His symptoms include increased indifference and frequent use of the snooze feature on his phone’s alarm clock. I believe he is suffering from senioritis, a common condition that strikes most 17-and 18-year-olds in the waning days of their senior year. I bet my son, like so many seniors, wonders what these last few weeks and months matter anyway.

However, senioritis can have real consequences for teens. They might see their grades plummet, which could affect merit aid or even an offer for admission at colleges that require a final transcript. Teens might stop preparing as well as they could for AP exams, which means they miss out on potential college credit. Not to mention that seniors could lose out on overall learning and increase their odds of a challenging transition to college or the workforce after graduation.

So how can seniors finish the year strong? Check out these eight ways that they can conquer senioritis:

1. Maintain a routine. Teens should keep doing what they have been doing all year. Go to classes and attend activities such as club meetings, team practices, and church or temple. Try to maintain a good sleep routine, too. Staying busy with day-today activities and getting enough sleep will combat the desire to check out.

2. Stay organized. It is important for your senior to keep track of test dates, meetings with a guidance counselor, and other events, such as cap and gown fittings, as they move towards graduation. Encourage them to use a planner, whether in hard copy form or through an app on their phone, to log deadlines and other important events. This practice will have benefits in the future, too, as they attend college or start a new job.

3. Celebrate and enjoy this special time. Yup, having fun is a reward for hard work, provides something to look forward to, and can motivate teens to stay the course and finish strong. After all, life is not always serious. Maybe your senior can attend prom or host one last epic get-together with friends. Or you could plan

14 | FAMILY TIMES APRIL 2024 PARENTING ISTOCK PHOTOS

a special family event, such as a weekend road trip or a decadent dinner from your teen’s favorite restaurant, to enjoy in person or at home.

4. Focus on finalizing college, trade school, or career plans. Most colleges require a decision on attendance (as well as a deposit) by May 1. And once your teen has decided which place of higher learning will be their new home, they will need to select housing, browse orientation dates, and contact an advisor for guidance on choosing freshman classes. For college-bound teens as well as those going to trade school or starting their careers, the simple act of focusing on their future plans, called future-oriented thinking, has been shown by psychologists to predict better behavior in the present as well as increased success with future plans.

5. Rest and recharge. Senior year can present an exhaustive pace of school and year-end events, and some teens might be suffering from senioritis that stems from just being tired. Making time for self-care, such as journaling or creative activities like painting, will help your teen hit the reset button. Even as little time as a half hour or an hour a day to relax and unwind can leave them feeling refreshed.

6. Stay physically healthy. Have your teen battle sluggishness with exercise, which releases endorphins and

boosts energy. They can practice making healthy, fresh meals, too, especially since they are still under your roof and you’re footing the bill! Your teen will notice a positive difference in how they feel after eating well and will also gain confidence in this life skill.

7. Talk to someone. Some teens may realize that they are checking out and suffering from senioritis. Talking with their guidance counselor, who has witnessed the effects of the Senior Slide time and time again, can help your teen get back on track. Or there may be a best friend, favorite teacher, coach, or parent (ahem!) your teen can confide in to help them plug back in.

8. Finally, surround your teen with love. That could mean you spoil them with small gifts like gas cards or comfy socks, or that you perform little actions like making their bed or their favorite breakfast, even though you know they are fully capable of doing those things themselves. Teens will notice your love and the sense of security and specialness it generates. This will no doubt buoy them as graduation approaches.

Remember, if your teen can conquer senioritis and stay engaged during the final weeks of senior year, then they will be one step closer to achieving their goals and dreams for the future, whether that includes college, trade school, the military, or a new job.

Seve n S ensational Spring Crafts

Spring is a time for new growth, and it is the perfect opportunity to test out your creative skills. Crafting is a way to spend time together, encourage your kids to express themselves through creativity, and fill in the “I’m bored” moments on a rainy day.

As a crafty mom, I try to keep basic craft supplies on hand – paints, glue, beads, yarn – and love to upcycle items that would have otherwise gone to a landfill.

If you are looking for crafts to add to your spring plans, here are a few of our ideas:

1. Painted Rocks

Flat river rocks are an easy canvas to create kindness rocks. These are typically painted with an inspirational message or uplifting graphic. The rocks are then shared by leaving them on well-traveled paths for others to pick up and collect. Another creative way to use river rocks is to incorporate them in a picture by using the rocks to create body parts for people or animals and then drawing in the arms, legs, and tails.

16 | FAMILY TIMES APRIL 2024 CREATE ISTOCK PHOTOS

2. Spring Door Wreath

A simple wreath craft requires a Styrofoam or metal wreath, colorful yarn, wooden shapes, and a little paint. Start by wrapping the entire wreath in a summer yarn color, like green or yellow. Decorate painted wooden shapes, flowers, or ribbons, and hot glue them into place. Let the kids hang their masterpieces with a removable hook on their bedroom doors.

3. Foraging or Farmers Market Bag

Every spring, my family goes through their closets to see what no longer fits. Some things, like well-worn t-shirts, are worn past the point of donation. You can repurpose those t-shirts into summertime bags by cutting off the sleeves and widening the necks to create the bag handles. To make a non-sew bag, cut the bottom of the shirt into 1” strips that are about 3” long. Tie up the strips to close the bottom of the t-shirt. You can decorate it with bling or leave it as is.

4. Pool Noodle Sailboats

The spring rain leaves plenty of opportunity to play in the water as it collects in neighborhood streams and large puddles. To make sailboats, cut 1” off a pool noodle and lay it flat like a donut. Use scissors to make a hole for a plastic straw mast that measures about 4.” For the sail, cut thin foam sheets into 4” triangles, poking holes through them for the straw to fit through.

5. Glue Sun Catcher

This is a craft you may prefer to do outside. You will need a few plastic dairy lids from yogurt and sour cream tubs, food coloring, toothpicks, and white glue. Pour glue to fill only the surface of the dairy lids. Too much glue requires a lot of drying time. Squeeze 2-5 drops of glue inside the lids and stretch the color around with a toothpick. Allow drying for several days before removing from the lid. Make a small hole near the top of one side and add a fishing wire to hang from the window.

6. 7. Yard Art

Spring sports practice always requires more bottled water. There are two fun ways to use empty bottles to decorate your yard. The first involves the lids. Hot glue the lids in the shape of a flower by placing one cap in the middle and six caps around the outside. When the flower shape dries, you can hot glue a wooden dowel on the back so you can stake it in the ground. Paint or decorate as desired.

The second way to use up empty water bottles is by creating a wind spiral. Use colorful permanent markers to color the outside of the four or five water bottles. Cut off the bottom ½ inch and discard. Cut the rest of the bottle in a one-piece spiral up to an inch before the bottom of the water bottle spout. Now, take a small dead branch or dowel rod and place it through the water bottle spouts. Add yarn or floral wire on the ends of the stick so it can hang from a nearby tree and blow in the wind.
