Kicking Off Session 4

Movies, Comics, and Games to name a few!

I can't believe we're into the 4th Session of ELP already!  This year has zoomed by and spring is around the corner.  We have some cool new workshops that will hopefully be utilizing the amazing outdoor spaces we have here at Robinson as the weather starts to turn towards balmy.   

We are happy to welcome Andrea Tremols back as an ELP Leader.  Andrea took Session 3 off but she's back with a vamped up Spanish workshop as well as her new Games Galore class.  This week I saw clashes of Star Wars Monopoly and a round robin tournament of Battleship!  Kids can't wait to see which games she pulls out of her sleeve next!

We are also excited to welcome Shawn Kimball back for his Lights, Camera, Action workshop.  Shawn will be guiding seven young aspiring director/actors as they devise their own plot, characters, and costumes for their first feature film.  I was able to sit in on their brainstorming session today and I think some spooky monsters and funny twists are in store.

Matt Senecal joins us this session with his awesome Comics Drawing Club.  Matt is a veteran when it comes to devising super heroes and we've got an eager crew of artists rarin' to get started on their own.  I'm excited to see the story boards they produce.  

That's it for Week 1 and stay tuned for more as our Poetry, Travels to Africa, Crazy 8's Math Club, and Chess Clubs start to heat up.

Have a great weekend!

John
