2013 Summer Writing Adventure Camp

Take part in a different kind of summer fun: Creative writing combined with high-energy explorations.

Seashore Family Literacy, a nonprofit organization in Waldport, Oregon, invites students ages 10 to 14 to join the 7th annual Summer Writing Adventure Camp. The event runs Monday, July 15 through Thursday, July 18, from 12pm to 4pm. The camp is free, and includes lunch.

To inspire writing, students will hike Cape Perpetua, walk the Alsea Bay Bridge, explore Newport’s Bayfront, and kayak the Alsea Bay. The camp is led by writer Drew Myron and adult mentor-volunteers. Parents are encouraged, but not required, to join in the fun.

The camp is limited to 12 students and pre-registration is required. To register, call Senitila McKinley, director of Seashore Family Literacy, 541-563-7323.

Now in its seventh year, the Summer Writing Adventure Camp is funded by Trust Management Services, and KOHO in Yachats.
