An “actors’ workshop,” crafts, board games, story times, guest speakers and outdoor activities will highlight the 57th annual Church Hill Park summer camp scheduled Monday through July 15 at the park on the west side of state Route 193, just south of state Route 304.

Registration will begin at 9 a.m. Monday for the camp geared to 5- to 12-year-olds and continues through the camp’s second week. Sessions are from 9 a.m. to noon weekdays. The cost is $30 a child.

To register, parents and guardians are asked to provide an index card including the child’s name, age, parents/guardians’ names, addresses and phone numbers where they may be reached at all times in case of emergency and any allergies the child has. Camp staff and volunteers are not permitted to administer medication.

Children should be dressed for outdoor activities. Children also must bring their own snack and beverages; there is no water fountain at the park.

Parents should note pick-up time is 11:45 a.m.; camp staff leaves at noon. Rosie Rokus-Boehlke is camp director.
