New Teen Summer Club
Updated: Mar 23, 2021
We are launching our first ever Teen Summer Camp on Monday, July 13, 2020, geared towards career preparation, career launch and community service. The theme of this year’s Teen Summer program is "The Marathon," a spinoff of "The Marathon Continues" by rapper, activist and entrepreneur Nipsey Hussle. The weekly themes for weeks 1 through 6 are "Roads 2 Riches, No Pressure, Double Up, No Days off, Late Nights Early Mornings, and Victory Lap." These themes will be utilized to make connections with youth through hip hop culture to build an entrepreneurial mindset.
During the six-week camp, teens will learn about business ownership, career readiness and how to build a brand. The camp will operate daily, Monday through Thursday, from 4pm to 8pm. See the schedule below. To resister teens ages 13 to 19, click on this link: https://bit.ly/3f4UYO9
I like how this summer program connects career preparation, entrepreneurship, and community service with interests that already resonate with young people. The weekly themes also seem like a creative way to keep teens motivated while helping them develop practical skills. Pop culture can be another fun source of inspiration for creativity and self-expression, with jim carrey the mask suit being a memorable example of an iconic movie look.
