Three RLC Kids Summer Camps set for Mt. Vernon, Pinckneyville

INA, Ill. – Focus on fashion, create delicious cakes, or craft original origami at three Kids Summer Camps located in Mt. Vernon or Pinckneyville this summer.

Studio RLC, located at the MarketPlace in Mt. Vernon, is again offering Strike A Pose camp for first through seventh graders. Learn the latest fashions and trends through the basics of skin care, make-up, nail care, hair styles, poise and etiquette. Campers will end the day with a fashion show for friends and family.

Each student should bring their favorite outfit for the fashion show, and parents and caregivers should arrive early to see the show. The camp costs $35 and includes lunch. The camp will meet from 9 a.m. – 3 p.m. Monday, June 4 at Studio RLC in Mt. Vernon.

In Pinckneyville, campers have two options in June and July. The first, Cake Creations camp, invites students in first through sixth grades to use icing, cookies, candies, and their imagination to create their own unique masterpieces with RLC Chef Janet Pearce.

Each camper should bring an apron or old shirt. The camp costs $15. Campers in first through third grades will meet from 9 – 11 a.m. and fourth through sixth graders will meet from 12 – 2:30 p.m. Tuesday, June 26 at the Murphy-Wall Pinckneyville Campus, Room 101.

For a less-messy creative outlet, campers can also take part in Origami camp. Here, Camp Instructor Maria Forbes will teach the Japanese art of paper folding to create modern designs.

Students between fourth and sixth grades will meet from 1 – 3 p.m. Thursday, July 19 at the Murphy-Wall Pinckneyville Campus, Room 101. The camp costs $15.

Grade level applies to either past or upcoming grade. Payments may be made by check, money order, credit or debit cards, or cash, and must be received at the time of registration. Parents and guardians are responsible for all transportation arrangements to and from camp.
