Grantee Spotlight
The Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Community Center (MLKCC) Summer Adventure Camp kicked off a season of fun and learning last week with a special field trip to Ninigret Park! The campers thought they were going on a nature hike and were surprised by something more magical… a giant troll! The Troll is one of the many pieces created by Danish artist Thomas Dambo that are hidden around the globe and made of recycled wood. The children were amazed at the size and magic of the art piece and spared no time running to examine it!
The MLKCC Summer Adventure Camp is located in Newport, RI, and offers a unique blend of fun and learning. Between these amazing adventures, students are enriching their minds with activities like STEM learning! The children are learning addition, subtraction, and more in their Math Class. From online math games to Addition/Subtraction Bingo, the campers are having fun while working on their math skills. Activities that explore Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math are an integral part of the Summer Adventure Camp, and thanks to generous grants from additional funders like Northrop Grumman Corporation, MLKCC can continue cultivating these young mathematicians’ minds!
