Ms. McAvoy coaches the Women’s Rugby Team at College of the Holy Cross. About the Camp 3D printing and design is a fast growing technology field. In this camp, campers will get to create 3D computer aided designs of common objects and pieces out of their imagination. The 3D designs created on the computer will then be printed on the 3D printer! From your head to a physical object in a short amount of time! Participants will work collaboratively to create and improve their designs by giving each other feedback on their work. They will learn the design process and will be able to interactively make changes and retest their designs. Campers will be provided computers and other hardware to use at camp. Campers of all levels will be challenged to create something appropriate for their age and ability level. Possible projects include creating containers, cars, board game pieces, artistic pieces, action figures and many more. Campers will be given flexibility in choosing the objects they will create. If final projects are not printed by the end of the week, they will be mailed home promptly upon their completion. After lunch each day, the campers will participate in different non-computer related activities.

About the Camp Worcester Academy Performing Arts (WASA) interweaves theatre, music and art in a performing arts program for boys and girls ages 7 to 14. Each two-week session concludes with performances of original musical plays, the focal point of our arts classes. Our revolving repertoire of 15 shows allows us to present different plays each session. Campers develop skills in major elements of musical theater: acting, movement, singing, instrumental music and scenery/props. Each session is limited to 45 campers, divided by age into three groups. Expert faculty work with counselors to address the individual needs of our campers. All campers are involved in two plays, in one as an actor/ singer/scenic artist, and in a second as an instrumentalist in the pit band. Our approach gives campers experience in all aspects of the productions, letting them develop their strengths and explore new directions. A typical day at WASA 9:00 am
