¡Play, Learn, Laugh, Live! ....Ida~Kid Style Our Home Is An Awesome Place For Good Growth
This one goes out to all the kids of all ages in the community, The Wood River Valley area is a fantastic place to grow up, end of story. OK—if you insist—I’ll explain from my always widening viewpoint why that is. Deep within our hearts, all of us who spend short, long or permanent spells here know that these lands make us each feel like singing, dancing, playing, rocking and rolling through life in all the best of ways. For most of us (I’d say all of us, but some may not yet see the Valley this way yet) lucky enough to have grown up around these parts, the Valley is uniquely special beyond measure or verbalization. For us grownups who have chosen to sprout roots here,
it also can be a wonderfully fulfilling place to work—as long as we’re willing to let our-kid-selves flow in unencumbered and well-controlled ways and apply our favorite things to do toward earning a living, plus giving a little something-something back to our community. For the little ones, this place can be pure magic. And, summertime can seem like an almost endless dream of fun under the clouds and moon and stars and sun. When I was younger, I loved romping around with my sister, brother and friends getting into all sorts of hilarious situations.... not to mention a few (of course ever so odd) icky “character building experiences.” The best thing is: this Valley was then and remains an incredibly safe and supportive sandbox for children

to learn how to best unfold their wings and truly learn to fly. Don’t believe me? Just watch! Whether your kids get to grow up in the Valley full time, part time, some of the time or just for a minute, you’ll see them shine here in all sorts of unimaginable ways as they navigate and explore their own way through often sunny, sometimes rainy, and always fun times in the WRVa. Kids: it’s a long way to the top if you wanna rock ‘n’ roll—so go get that life you dream of, every day! Play nice, learn lots, laugh always & live fun, Brennan Rego Publisher & Editor

t. Thomas Playhouse, located at 201 Sun Valley Road in Ketchum, annually offers summer programming for a wide range of ages. April 1 marked the opening of registration for two of the performing arts conservatory for kids’ popular summer camps, Company B Summer Performing Arts Day Camp and Summer Performing Arts Conservatory Camp (SPACC). Additionally, auditions will be held for Summer Theatre Project, a program for teens and young adults, on April 24-25. Company B is already over half-full for 2015. The two-week camp will take place from June 8-20 and is open to kids as young as age four through students who will be entering the eighth grade. “It's a great introduction to
theatre for younger children,” says Sara Gorby, Production/ Education Director. “It gives them the opportunity to be part of a play, to be able to see all the pieces of rehearsal process, to create costumes and a set, and to work with professionals and upand-coming professionals.” This year, Company B will give four public performances for the community of “Schoolhouse Rock Live Jr.” Summer Theatre Project will present “Urinetown The Musical,” a hilarious satire, from June 17-20 at 7:30 p.m. at ComSierra Stern munity School Theater, located Former camper at 1 Community School Drive in Sun Valley. The five-week program is a tuition-free opportunity for high schoolers and young adults to produce a fully staged musical.

10 WeekS oF Summer Fun! “It’s a great continuation from Company B,” says Brett Moellenberg, managing director for St. Thomas Playhouse and director of “Urinetown.” “I’d say about 75 percent of the kids we have are kids who have come back year after year and who we’ve watched grow-up.” Auditions for the tuition-free program will be held on Friday, April 24, from 3:30-5:30 p.m. at the Community Campus’ Minnie Moore Room, located at 1050 Fox Acres Road in Hailey, and on Saturday, April 25, from 1-3 p.m. at St. Thomas Episcopal Church, located at 201 Sun Valley Road in Ketchum. Audition materials are available on the St. Thomas Playhouse website (www.sthomassunvalley.com), under “Auditions.” The Playhouse requests that those interested in auditioning consider preparation of the audition materials mandatory. Rehearsals begin on May 16 at St. Thomas Church. “I think this musical will be a nice rounding to what we’ve done over the years ~ starting with some classical musical theatre and moving toward new works,” Gorby said. Moellenberg added, “It’s been a while since we’ve done a fullfledged comedy. It’ll be a good change of pace. We were listening to the soundtrack today and almost every song involves the full cast in one way or another.” SPACC, which is a one-week conservatory program held at the beautiful Camp Perkins ~ which is nestled in the Sawtooth Mountains National Forest, about 40 miles north of Ketchum ~ will
run from June 22-27. The camp is available to kids entering fifth grade through those entering twelfth grade, and campers can choose acting, music or dance as their main discipline, with a minor discipline that they’ll study during the afternoon. This year’s theme will be “Journeys.” This camp is a process-based camp, which means its structure focuses more on the campers’ journeys and growth during the experience than on a final product. According to Gorby, the student-to-faculty ratio is about five to one. "When I first heard I was going to SPACC, I had a smile that stuck on my face all day,” exclaimed Sierra Stern, a former camper. “While I was at SPACC I learned more about acting and music than ever. And, I learned not to be embarrassed and instead to act freely and to be very emotive. I hope to go to SPACC next year." Scholarships are available online, including the Sarah Adicoff Memorial Scholarship, which is merit based and provides full tuition for one high school student to SPACC. Additional scholarships based on economic need include the H. Edward Bilkey Memorial Scholarship Fund of St. Thomas Playhouse and the Campfire Foundation. To apply for a scholarship or to learn more about the Playhouse’s summer offerings, visit www.stthomasplayhouse.org or call 208-726-5349 ext. 16.

ummertime…sunshine and warm days, kids out of school…and what to do? The Blaine County Recreation District (BCRD) will have locals covered this summer. When school is out, BCRD camps have something for everyone and are designed to keep kids active and engaged all summer long. This year marks the 20th anniversary of the BCRD summer youth programs. “Children can expect a wide range of activities at the BCRD camps ~ from nature hikes, arts & crafts, swimming at the outdoor pool, bike rides and more,” BCRD Program Director Dave Keir says. “Fridays are called ‘Friday Fun Days,’ and every Friday for those who choose, field trips are offered with destinations such as Redfish Lake, Craters of the moon, caving and more.” There are also theme weeks, which add to the fun. “Last year we had a carnival week, and on Thursday of that week, all the camps came together and participated in a carnival with games, face painting, popcorn and the like,” Keir says.
There is a wide range of ages for the BCRD camps as well. In its second year, the Kinder camp is a program offered for children going into kindergarten this fall. Most of those kids haven't been to camp before, so it will be their first time experiencing everything that day camp has to offer. Usually featuring four and fiveyear-olds, this 10-week camp is run slightly differently than the other three age groups ~ keeping their young age in mind. There are three additional programs for campers: the Explorer program (for five and sixyear-olds going into the first and second grade), Discover program (for seven and eight-year-olds going into the second and third grade) and the Challenger program (for fourth through seventh graders). The Challenger program for older kids includes leadership training. “The fourth to seventh graders will go offsite more with trips, see more team building activities and develop leadership skills much like a counselor in training,” Keir says. “These children will enjoy the camp atmosphere and fun, but with more service projects and skills. It’d be great to have them come back as a
counselor or staff member in the future. “It’s the uniqueness and diversity of the camps that is so great,” Keir continues. “The kids never know what they’ll show up to every day. It’s going to be fun and interesting for everyone ~ a time to meet new friends while enjoying a variety of new experiences.” For parents, BCRD camps are very convenient for numerous reasons. “It’s a one-stop shop,” Keir says. The bulk of camp activities take place between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., but the camp doors open at 8 a.m. and close at 6 p.m., which is handy for working parents. The BCRD is a non-profit organization dedicated to enhancing Blaine County’s quality of life by creating healthy, active recreational opportunities for all, according to its website. It is called "Recreation District," after all; it’s summer camps are about getting out and enjoying the summer in the Wood River Valley area. Call or visit BCRD's website today, as camps will fill up fast: www.bcrd.org or 208578-BCRD (2273). tws
