This summer, Shooting Star Enterprises will host
two five-day, historical day camps for young ladies who will be entering the 3rd
through 6th grades (about ages 8-13) in the upcoming school year. New this year will be an additional camp that will be all day July 16-18 (8 am-5:30pm) as well. The event will be held from 9 a.m. through 2 p.m. each day at the Shooting Star's facilities in Hitchcock, Oklahoma. The first session runs from June 25-29, 2007; and the second session runs from July 23-27, 2007. The goal: to immerse the young ladies in turnof- the-century life by encouraging grace, manners, and creativity with a historical
perspective.
The event, "Oklahoma Girls- An Edwardian Day Camp", focuses on the years 1904- 1907, which is perfect for girls who love the American Girls® Samantha Series™ or for those who are preparing for the statehood events in 2007. Each participant will learn turn-of-the-century dance, plain and fancy sewing, basics of cooking and teatime manners, as well as do historical crafts and play both indoor and outdoor period games. Plus, Marna Jean Davis, historical clothing expert and hostess of the festivities, will provide costumes for the girls to wear during the camp, so that they can truly feel like they are a part of history.
