ACA’s summer camp has a 20-year history, popular among both Chinese and non-Chinese families. As part of its mission of cultural sharing, the camp has allowed countless students to explore and experience Chinese culture, as well as to develop a passion for their roots. This year’s program will continue to focus on culture and language learning, with special cultural activities such as traditional crafts, calligraphy, Chinese yoyo, opera, songs, dance, cooking, and more. The camp also emphasizes developing leadership skills, learning teamwork, appreciating and understanding ethnic diversity.  Campers are divided into groups based on age.
