The poultry show was filled with Camden participants today at the Boonville- Oneida county fair!

Dalton received 1st place in showmanship! The agriculture program of Camden is extremely proud of our kids!











Can you guess where the agriculture cabin is going?!


Today the Agriculture Cabin took time to look at strawberry DNA! The DNA looked just like slime. Students also planted succulents to take home. The day ended with story time and yoga! Check back tomorrow to see what special adventure is next for the Agriculture Cabin!

Camden's Agriculture Program has now made its way to the Boonville-Oneida County Fair! The program has a small display that showcases agriculture in Camden. The showcase will grow in years to come!


Today the students within the agriculture cabin watched the "miracle of life" at DiNitto Farm in Marcy New York. Students watched a new baby calf be born and even got the chance to name it! Students learned all about where milk comes from and how much time and energy is put into raising dairy cattle. The students had such an eventful day that ended with Yoga. Tune in next week to see what plant activities we have up our sleeve in the agriculture cabin!











The Agriculture cabin learned about sheep today and met the agriculture classroom therapy dog. Students learned uses for wool and how to shear a sheep. Students then had lots of time learning about training canines and what the job of a therapy dog are. Check back in tomorrow to see where the Agriculture cabin goes next!

The agriculture cabin had a moo-ving and grooving day filled with cattle! Mrs. Willson the local dairy farmer and Math teacher at Camden Middle School took time to educate students at Camp-Sum-More-Fun about the dairy industry and her farm. "Happy" was also a welcomed visitor. Students even had the opportunity to learn how to milk a cow! Check back in tomorrow to see what Thursday is all a-"baaaa"-out!






Camp is back in session! Wednesday marked the third day of our summer enrichment program called “Camp Sum-More-Fun”.
Over 400 students in grades K-9 are taking part in this award-winning educational program for the 2023 season at Camden High School.
Our K-2 students, the “Happy Campers”, explore a wide variety of age-appropriate STEAM activities. Students in grades 3-8 are known as the “Explorers” group, and are enrolled into subject-based “cabins” where they can explore an area of their choice such as drones, culinary arts, agriculture, business, music, and theatre.
We have also added a ninth grade “leadership” group for the first time. A select group of students were chosen to offer peer mentorship and leadership education opportunities to the younger campers.
In our Wednesday session, we saw an incredible racing drone demonstration, craft activities with our “Tycoon Junior” business group, spirited competition from the “Ninja Warriors” group, and an AWESOME science presentation by “Professor K” at our closing ceremony (We’ll have video shortly!).
Stay tuned for plenty of content as CSMF continues!
CSMF is presented through a partnership with the Madison-Oneida BOCES LEAP summer enrichment programs!
