FRANKLIN — Applications are now being accepted to attend Copper Cannon Camp, this year the Franklin Elks Traditional Resident Camp will be held from July 5 through 11.
The program is free and the Franklin Elks Lodge will provide transportation for the campers up and back. Lunch is provided prior to leaving to go to camp. The traditional resident camp program is designed for youth from nine to twelve years old. These children share cabins with five to six other campers and a staff member.
Mornings are spent participating in activities as a cabin group. Afternoons may include special "all camp" events, swimming at Echo Lake or the opportunity for the campers to choose areas of special interest such as a unique craft activity, touch rugby, folk dancing or other surprises created by the staff. The evenings continue the camp experience with campfires, games and a cookout complete with s'mores.
Each child will have to have a physical prior to attending camp. To learn more about the camp and to download the application and medical form please visit www.coppercannon.org/ or contact Lisa Collins at 491-3325 or email lcollins1965@live.com.
