“Summer Picnic”, by Madeline Carson
Summer 2017
CALC
Carlisle Arts Learning Center
A Note from Becky~
As the mother of two children, I understand what it is
like to plan an entire summer, strategically scheduling
summer camps and family vacations… in March—it
is not easy! But as hard as it is, at the end of every
summer I am grateful that my kids were able to have
unique experiences that were both enriching and fun.
Thanks to committed staff and teachers, generous
donors, and dedicated community partners, CALC is
able to offer incredible summer camp opportunities
to youth aged 3 to 14. I love seeing the kids each day
at CALC laughing and creating together—it makes me
want to go to camp! Thank you to each of you who
are making CALC summer camps possible for over
400 kids this summer!
