Art camp Show

This year the kids did a week of Arts camp which included arts & crafts, music and drama.
Here are videos from their performances on the last day (theme was Myths and Legends).  Maddy is Prometheus, and David is a narrator for the story of Ganesha.

Fitzgerald camp show

The highlight of Fitzgerald camp (held at Peabody Elementary, the kids's school) is the Dizzy Lu production done at the end of camp. Here are a few musical numbers.  Theme was The Greatest Showman. First number is "a million dreams", followed by "I'll be there",  "the greatest show", "waiting for the world to change", and "dade county dip".  And yes, David is doing sign language.
