Scranton Area Community Foundation Awards $5,000 to Camp Create Members News August 5, 2025 The Scranton Area Community Foundation granted $5000.00 to Camp Create, A Visual & Performing Arts Camp for Children with Special Needs. Due to this generous award, tuition was only $25 per week for an entire week of camp during the summer of 2024. Camp was also offered free of charge if a participant requested a full scholarship. Camp Create tuition fees are kept low due to the extraordinary expenses families of children with special needs face and this grant enabled many children to attend camp during the summer of 2024. Our themes for 2024 were “Robomania! The Ultimate Robot Adventure Camp” and “Fantasy, Fairytales & Beasts! A Journey into Enchanted Realms”. Campers created their own works of art and fantastic original plays based around these themes that they presented at the end of each week of camp. Camp will also be held during the summer of 2025. This will be our 25th year of camp! Camp dates and themes for summer 2025 are:Session 1: August 4 – August 8, 10:00 am – 2:00 pmGalactic Odyssey! A Space Adventure Camp Session 2: August 11 – August 15, 10:00 am – 2:00 pm Imagination Station! Where Dreams Come to Life You can find our 2025 brochure here.
