Each camper participates in one class. Some classes may be canceled depending on the interest.
This year, there is the option of registering at the bottom of this page. This method is both faster and easier. As an alternative, you can e-mail us at info@midwestleadershipcamp.org with your child's top three class preferences in order.

Journalism
Learn proper techniques on how to interview, write simple articles, and take polls. Work with other campers, counselors, and staff to gather information about everything going at camp and put it all together to create a daily newsletter that will be shared on the website and every night at dinner. You will have a lot of fun choosing who you want to interview, coming up with polls that interest you, and getting to experience every aspect of camp by reporting on it.

Drama
Drama has sometimes been likened to an escape from reality, a chance to throw off our common faces and indulge in a variety of colorful personalities that we might like to experience. In the Drama Class, campers will be exposed to a variety of theatrical techniques to enhance their acting skills, such as improvisation, silent-acting, and small skit sessions, eventually working their way up to an original, short production. No prior experience is needed to join this class; all that is needed is a willingness to learn and a sense of humor. If you have ever been afraid of acting, now is the time to cast aside those fears and enjoy the stage!.
