THE DANISH SISTERHOOD OF AMERICA
CAMP GRANTS

Does the idea of immersing yourself in Danish Language and culture appeal to you? If so, there are two Danish Language camps, Skovsøen, in Bemidji, MN and Himmelbjerget, in Corbet, OR. We will award two language camp grants of $260.00 each to attend one of these camps.
Skovsøen is the Danish program at the Concordia Language Villages. This summer cultural and language immersion experience in the north woods of Minnesota is a wonderful opportunity for children ages seven to seventeen. Learning a new language and making friends while eating Danish meals, celebrating traditional holidays, bicycling along trails, swimming in Turtle River Lake or sipping juice at Café Terrasse make Skovsøen a memorable summer camp experience. The Core session is a two-week session in late August for villagers 8-17. One six-day session for children ages 7-15 are also offered during the core session as an introduction to the language village experience. The four-week Credit Session is an intensive language program for high school students, which provides the opportunity to earn one year of world language credit upon completion of all course work. Visit the Concordia Language Village/Skovsøen web site at www.ConcordiaLanguageVillages.org to learn about all that Skovsøen offers.

Himmelbjerget Danish Camp offers an opportunity to become more familiar with the delightful little country of Denmark with a one-week exposure to Denmark's history, people, culture, and traditions. Learn basic Danish vocabulary, meet new friends and have a memorable time participating in Danish sports, folk dancing and crafts. The theme for this years' camp is COPENHAGEN and all week campers will learn about many historic Danish sites in this marvelous city. It's going to be an exciting week!
