BOARD GAME SUMMER CAMP
Offered through Bainbridge Island Parks & Rec
THREE REGISTRATION OPTIONS AVAILABLE:
If you're looking to get your kids off of screens this summer and into something engaging, strategic, creative and analog, we've got the answer!
Board Games have come a long way from the days of Monopoly, Risk and other “classics” everyone owns. The scope and variety of modern board games are nearly endless!
We'll introduce your kids to the wonderful world of modern tabletop gaming by focusing on a new genre or mechanic each day — from Worker Placement and Drafting to Deck Building, Set Collection, Cooperative Strategy and more!
MINIATURE PAINTING
FUNDAMENTALS

In this 3-day workshop, we’ll cover how to get started, core tools and techniques, and how to keep on growing and improving. You'll leave the camp with your very own miniature that YOU painted, and (hopefully) a new-found interest in a fantastic hobby!
Miniature painting has many benefits, including stress relief, artistic expression, and the satisfaction of seeing your work come to life. And it's also a great way to give your brain a screen-break!
