Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Plymouth Christian Youth Center's Camp Capri will enroll 25 middle school youth summer 2014. Of the youth enrolled, 90% will increase their creative skills and talents by the end of the program.Increase in creative skills and talents will be measured by: self-assessment by the youth at the end of the program, surveys and verbal feedback from the parents/families, and evaluations by the artist/teachers.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Camp Capri remained fully enrolled all five weeks, and all students participated in all the creative activities (including guitar and keyboards), and said they gained proficiency in each area of study. Dance was by far the most popular activity. 21 of the 25 students enrolled were new to Camp Capri this year.
