GREENFIELD VILLAGE takes you back to a time when
American innovation was speedily and permanently
changing the world in which we live. This was a time
when bold pioneers of science, industry and social
issues were making the world a better place. Henry Ford
founded this village, the largest museum complex in the
nation, to preserve history and the great advancements
of his day. Significant buildings include the Wright’s
bicycle shop; the home of Noah Webster, where he
wrote his first dictionary; a replica of Thomas Edison’s
Menlo Park laboratory; and the Illinois courthouse where
Abraham Lincoln first practiced law. Visitors can also
take a ride in a horse-drawn omnibus, a Ford Model T, a
steam locomotive or a historic 1913 Herschell-Spillman
Carousel!
The DETROIT PUPPETART CENTER’S rich, multicultural
productions are known for having an eye for detail that
should offer plenty to appreciate for kids and adults.
The theatre’s core is composed of artists classically
trained in Russian puppeteering. The theater designs and
manufactures all puppets in house, and composes music
for its productions as well. They will present us with
Kolobok, a song-filled Russian version of The Gingerbread
Man play.
DIAMOND JACK’S RIVER TOURS offers a 1.5 hour
narrated boat tour that is educational, historical and fun.
This ride offers a unique and close-up look at some of
Detroit’s most iconic landmarks. Detroit was once dubbed
the “Paris of the West” for its exceptionally beautiful
architecture, such as the Renaissance Center, Ambassador
Bridge, Fort Wayne and J.W. Westcott Floating Post Office.
In addition, we’ll see 16 miles of U.S and Canada Detroit
River shoreline, ocean-going and Great Lakes ships, a
light house, ship terminals, a mail boat and much more.
The GM RENAISSANCE CENTER TOUR is a one-hour tour
taking visitors through the landmark GM Renaissance
Center and outlines the rich history that General Motors
shares with the city of Detroit. Tour highlights include
the Wintergarden, a tropical atrium overlooking Detroit
River; GM Showroom, an eclectic display of vintage, new
model and concept vehicles; Borealis Glass Sculpture, the
tallest vertical glass sculpture in the world; and a glass
elevator ride to the 72nd floor for a breathtaking view of
the Detroit and Windsor skylines.
PROJECT SUN is an annual event conducted by the
Auxiliary to the National Medical Association (ANMA) for

snowmobile and off-road driving simulations, fauxpiloting an environmental reconnaissance Cessna,
kayaking some of the state’s winding rivers, reeling in
a bluegill or steelhead, and hunching into a deer blind
with a rifle. The 50,000 square-foot building in the
heart of Detroit will house interactive exhibits that will
teach people about being good stewards of the natural
resources, while encouraging them to get out and play.

Kamaàina Kids has worked with the NMA convention planners to develop a program
that is both convenient for parents and memorable for campers. The preliminary
program activities have been carefully selected with the goal of providing a wide
range of age-appropriate, educational, social and cultural experiences unique
to Detroit, MI. The following activity descriptions detail the Camp. Activities are
subject to change due to availability in August 2015.
KAREN CZARNIK is a storyteller, singer songwriter and
musician, whose unique performances combine music
and stories to teach, engage, encourage and tickle to
the funny bone. Her collaboration of characters and tale
reveal colorful images in the minds of listeners. Karen’s
music, voice and stories inspire audiences of all ages.
The FORD FOOTBALL FIELD TOUR will give us a behindthe-scenes glimpse of Detroit’s crown jewel and the
home of the Detroit Lions, Super Bowl XL and the 2009
NCAA Men’s Basketball Final Four. This indoor stadium
represents Detroit’s history and its future in a single
venue, integrating the stadium into the historical old
Hudson’s warehouse built in the 1920s. We’ll get a peek
at a Ford Field suite, an NFL locker room, walk down
the tunnel to the field and stand on the turf for a player’s
view of the stadium.

DYNAMIKE “THE MICHIGAN KID’S MASTER MAGICIAN”
has been performing comedy magic acts throughout
Michigan for over 30 years. He has performed in many
venues from festivals to television shows to the White
House. Kids enjoy watching Dynamike and his exciting,
engaging comedy magic acts.
Experience a DETROIT TIGERS BASEBALL GAME at
Comerica Park! We will cheer for the Tigers in a home game
against the Kansas City Royals. Nearly every seat in the main
grandstand has an excellent view of downtown Detroit.
In centerfield are several fountains that produce liquid
fireworks every time a homerun is hit.
The MICHIGAN SCIENCE CENTER is a unique, fun and
dynamic hands-on museum, offering programs that
inspire children and their families to discover, explore and
appreciate science, technology and math in a fun, dynamic
learning environment. Through an interactive approach
to science with engaging, hands-on exhibits, shows and
activities, MiSci strives to help launch the next generation
of Michigan’s engineers, scientists and innovators, and
significantly impact the cultural and economic renewal of
Detroit and Michigan.

The CHARLES H. WRIGHT MUSEUM OF AFRICAN
AMERICAN HISTORY is the world’s largest institution
dedicated to the African American experience, with a
mission to open minds and change lives through the
exploration and celebration of African American history
and culture. It houses over 35,000 artifacts and archival
materials and is home to the Blanche Coggin Underground
Railroad Collection, Harriet Tubman Museum Collection,
Coleman A. Young Collection and the Sheffield Collection, a
repository of documents of the labor movement in Detroit.
MAD SCIENCE DETROIT is on a mission to spark the
imagination and curiosity of children by providing them
with fun, interactive and educational programs that instill
a clear understanding of what science is and how it affects
their world. Spectacular science-themed shows are designed
to amaze and entertain audiences. Children learn about
science when they see foggy dry ice storms, float on a Mad
Science hovercraft, watch a foam factory at work, discover
Bernoulli’s principle, make magic mud, alter sound waves
and so much more!
The CAMP NMA-ZING TALENT COMPETITION gives our
young stars a chance to shine. Groups will practice a song,
dance, skit or other talent to perform for our live audience
of their peers and our staff judges!
The CAMP NMA-ZING TEEN DANCE, for ages 12 and up,
is an on-site dance party for youth to unwind, express
imagination and artistry, and celebrate with their friends. A
live DJ, lighting effects, dance contests and more will make
this last evening of camp one to remember.
The NMA has contracted Kamaàina Kids, Hawaiì’s Enrichment and Education Professionals, to conduct a fun-filled, enriching

ANMA EVENT DESCRIPTIONS
PINE KNOB GOLF COURSE
For years, golf enthusiasts from all over Michigan have made
The Knob Golf Course a “must play” track. Perhaps it’s the
beautiful championship layout featuring scenic views along
a rolling terrain with dramatic elevation changes from tee to
green with country club conditioning. Maybe it’s the awardwinning course designer, Dan Pohl, who has continually
updated greens, bunkers and general course layout to make
it a better golf experience in recent years. Consistent high
quality and attention is paid to the details like landscaping
and service. The course includes 27 holes of championship
golf that wind through lakes, woods and many scenic
elevation changes with three distinctive nines to choose
from: The Eagle, The Falcon, and The Hawk. The first teebox on the Eagle course is the highest elevation in Oakland
County, giving a player an amazing view, up to 30 miles
away on a clear day! Pine Knob has been rated 4 stars out of
five by Golf Digest Places to Play.
EDSEL & ELEANOR FORD
HOUSE TOUR
It appears large, but does not seem imposing. Despite its
size (30,000 square feet with sixty rooms), the estate
has the unpretentious look of a quaint manor from the
Cotswold Hills of England. Construction on the home
began in 1926, not long after the Fords commissioned
Albert Kahn to design their ideal residence.
Though intimate, the estate is quite grand. The ceilings in many
rooms are adorned with plaster fleur de lis details, the walls
paneled with ornate linen fold wood from England, there are
French wrought crystal chandeliers hanging; the number of
32
n
intricate details in each room is (at times) overwhelming. This
is especially evident on the first floor of the home. Among the
rooms on the first floor are the art gallery, the drawing room,
the library, the morning room and the dining room. Imagine
the large kitchen area connecting to three different rooms, the
flower room, the game room, and Edsel’s study.
Though the house originally cost 3.2 million dollars
to build, replacing this stone roof ten years ago cost 3
million dollars alone and took three years to complete. The
difference of the times is evident in the cost of the house,
and is also noticeable in many facets of the home.
Experience the story of the Ford family in this historic
mansion rich with art and antiques spanning the centuries.
Situated along Lake St. Clair, the estate stands amid 87 acres
of beautifully landscaped gardens and grounds. Highlights
include visiting the enchanting playhouse and viewing Mr.
and Mrs. Ford’s personal cars. Lunch included.
MOTOWN MUSEUM & MUSEUM OF
AFRICAN AMERICAN HISTORY TOUR
Despite the passage of time since Motown Records’
establishment in 1959 by Berry Gordy, tens of thousands
of visitors pass through Hitsville U.S.A., home to the
Motown Museum, each year. Their presence is a testimony
to Motown’s legacy and to the charisma, talent and staying
power of the music and those who made it.
The Motown Museum, which was founded by Esther
Gordy Edwards in 1985, is one of Southeast Michigan’s
most popular tourist destinations. Visitors come from
across America and throughout the world to stand in
Studio A, where their favorite artists and groups recorded
much-loved music, and to view the restored upper flat
where Berry Gordy lived with his young family during
the company’s earliest days. The Motown Museum is home
to an extensive array of Motown artifacts, photographs
and other memorabilia. The Motown Museum tells the
story of how a man’s vision turned into one of the largest,
most successful record companies of all time and how the
music – the Motown Sound – captured the hearts of young
people, not only in America, but across the globe.
Memories show, dancing to the Motown melodies while
enjoying additional views of the Detroit and Windsor
Canada skyline. Lake Michigan is one of the five Great Lakes
of North America, and the only one located entirely within
the United States. It is bounded, from west to east, by the
U.S. states of Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana and Michigan.
The word Michigan” was originally used to refer to the
lake itself, and is believed to come from the Ojibwa Indian
word mishigami, meaning “great water.”
THE CHARLES H. WRIGHT MUSEUM
OF AFRICAN AMERICAN HISTORY
FORD ROUGE FACTORY TOUR
The world’s largest institution dedicated to the African
American experience. Dr. Charles Wright, an obstetrician
and gynecologist, envisioned an institution to preserve
Black history after visiting a memorial to Danish World
War II heroes in Denmark. As a result of this visit, he was
convinced that African Americans needed a similar resource
center to document, preserve and educate the public on
their history, life and culture. The Wright Museum houses
over 35,000 artifacts and archival materials and is home
to the Blanche Coggin Underground Railroad Collection,
Harriet Tubman Museum Collection, Coleman A. Young
Collection and the Sheffield Collection, a repository of
documents of the labor movement in Detroit. The museum
also features: Maya Angelou’s And Still We Rise: Our
Journey through African American History and Culture, the
museum’s 22,000 square foot, interactive core exhibit.
The Ford Rouge Factory Tour, a joint partnership between
The Henry Ford and Ford Motor Company, offers visitors
the opportunity to tour the rich history of the Rouge,
the birthplace of the Model A, the V-8, Mustang and the
Thunderbird while bearing witness to the future of
manufacturing through the assembly of the new F-150.
The Henry Rouge Factory opened in 1929 as a school and
was driven by Ford’s belief that the genius of the American
people was not being taught in textbooks. Today, The Henry
Ford Factory, in Dearborn, Michigan, is an internationallyrecognized cultural destination that brings the past
forward by immersing visitors in the stories of ingenuity,
resourcefulness and innovation that helped shape America.
This national historic landmark has five unique venue
attractions: Thomas Edison’s Menlo Park Laboratory, The
Wright Brothers’ Home & Bicycle Shop, Buckminster Fuller’s
Dymaxion House, one of Steve Jobs’ and Steve Wozniak’s
1976 Apple-1 computers and Henry Ford’s Quadricycle.
These five distinct attractions at The Henry Ford captivate
and inspire more than 1.6 million visitors annually.
ANMA PRESIDENT’S CRUISE
Don’t MISS the boat! Cruise the great waters of Michigan

Revolutionary War sites and the chair in which Abraham
Lincoln was sitting the night he was shot.

DETROIT INSTITUTE OF ART
The Detroit Institute of Art (DIA) has been a beacon
of culture for the Detroit area for well over a century.
Founded in 1885, the museum was originally located
on Jefferson Avenue, but, due to its rapidly expanding
collection, moved to a larger site on Woodward Avenue
in 1927. The new Beaux-Arts building, designed by Paul
Cret, was immediately referred to as the “temple of art.”
Two wings were added in the 1960s and 1970s, and a
major renovation and expansion that began in 1999 was
completed in 2007. The DIA building measures 600,000
square feet. Completion of the museum’s renovation and
expansion project will add another 77,000 square feet. The
Detroit Institute of Art’s collection is among the top six in
the United States.
