Dear Camp Parents/Guardians,
Hello, my name is Amanda Brown, and I am your Camp NAC Director. For nine
years, the NAC has been my home. It has provided me a community in which to
learn, grow, and most importantly, bring to life my passion for children. As your
camp director I strive-with the invaluable help of an expert staff-to make each
camper’s summer incredible.
We are very excited for the upcoming summer camp! This year Camp NAC will
feature a wide variety of new specialty camps in addition to the ones that
everyone loved last year. We are also looking forward to Camp NAC’s new home
over in the NAC Sports Training Center.
I am always available for any questions, concerns or suggestions that you may
have. We are looking forward to meeting new campers and old friends as we
prepare for Camp NAC 2015!
See you all soon,
