Registration is now
open for the YWCA Pasadena-Foothill
Valley's Girl’s
Empowerment Summer Camp!
The Girls Empowerment Summer Camp focuses
on developing confidence, improving self-esteem, identifying ambitions,
learning new skills, and empowering girls to dream big. Throughout the summer,
participants will chart the course to reach their goals and realize their full
potential through a series of empowerment workshops, community service
projects, college tours, and cultural excursions. This summer's activities include a scavenger hunt,
cooking classes, beach trips, business tours, and life skills lessons such as
money management, healthy living, and relationship building.
Fridays start at the Huntington
Gardens & Library for hands-on experience with the master
gardener at the Huntington Ranch, and garden-to-table cooking lessons with
local chefs. Senior high school girls will practice interacting in a
professional setting and learn public speaking skills in a specially-designed
docent training for one of the Huntington's art exhibits.
Camp runs from June
30th to August 8th, Monday through Friday, 9:00 am to
6:00 pm and is held at the YWCA location at 1015 N. Lake Ave, Suite 205, in
Pasadena.
