  For five consecutive Saturday afternoons, the Filipino Summer Day Camp welcomes kids between 7 to 18 years old.

  The camp features two parallel sessions for younger and older kids. Campers will learn basic Tagalog language, while being introduced to Filipino music, regional cuisine, Filipino customs and values, hands-on art projects, popular literature and folklore, and traditional Filipino games and pastimes.

  Lesson plans have been developed by Filipino American education experts and licensed professionals, who will also act as camp counselors.

  Registration is now open. If you plan to register more than one Camper, you will need to fill up the form separately for each attendee.
