Sign Language Camp for Hearing Kids will be held on the 86-acre Mill Neck Manor Campus for two sessions: July 29 to Aug. 2 and Aug. 5 to Aug. 9, from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
This exclusive camp is for hearing children, ages 8 to 16, who are interested in learning American Sign Language and are excited to be immersed in deaf culture. Campers will experience a combination of classroom learning activities and traditional camp activities, including arts and crafts and outdoor games, all with an ASL concentration. Campers will master the ASL alphabet and learn to fingerspell, as well as practice conversational signing by interacting with people who are deaf and hard of hearing.
Sign Language Camp accommodates ASL learners who are at the beginner, intermediate and advanced levels. Pricing is $500 per session and includes a free daily lunch, camp T-shirt and tour of the historic Mill Neck Manor, located at 40 Frost Mill Road in Mill Neck.
