Ellen’s Work Blog
July 2024
July is the busiest kid month on our calendar and it is my favorite for that reason. We now have several Summer @AMP programs going on simultaneously. I love it when the kids’ activities intersect and teenagers work with younger campers at different times of the day.
When Ed Fast leads the teen music week and the younger “Dabble in Art” group comes in to listen, the younger kids dance to the music the teens play.
This year, we are piloting our first Theater program for ages 12 and up, led by Deb Holleran of the Music Theatre of Connecticut. This troupe will perform scenes from the Broadway show Working, A Musical, at the end of the week on Friday, July 19, at 7pm.
For all the adults who also need to have some fun—coming up in the weeks ahead, we have Theresa Thomason & the KC Sisters with Keith Fluitt on August 10. Last year, I had a blast when they performed, and I was not alone. The minute they all started to sing, everyone was up dancing. And don’t miss our second Brews & Views two weeks later on August 24. We had a full house for this event last year. Coming from a beer family, I think we must make this an AMP annual tradition.
