Sandy Lane has agreed to be the Creation Camp Coordinator for AzOSA. She will head up the organizational work to make this a reality. Sandy is looking for people who want to take part in the activity either by helping to organize it, assist in running it when it is held, or by teaching sessions. The idea is to have sessions for elementary and secondary school-aged kids and adults simultaneously in a one-day schedule on Saturdays. First thoughts are to have a summer camp in Prescott, a fall camp in Phoenix and a spring camp in Tucson. Eventually, we would like to see this grow into family weekend camps and even a week long summer camp. If you would to sign up or ask for more information please call Sandy at 480-807-0695 (h) or 602-615-2326 (cell) or email her at lane@forensicgroup.com.
