Shakopee Community Education

Are you ready to step into the spotlight? Join us for an exciting summer camp where students will work on acting and improv skills! Campers will develop their stage presence, perform scenes from popular plays and musicals, and work as a team to bring stories to live. Students will also dive into the world of improv (acting without a script). Through games and challenges, students will develop quick thinking, adaptability and the ability to create memorable characters on the spot. Focus is put on developing imagination, social skills and a positive self-image through the performing arts. Family and friends are invited to a special performance on the last day of camp. Meets four times.

Safety is about the situation, self-awareness and self-defense. Learn the fundamentals, effective responses to practical situations, and experience hands-on exercises. This class includes discussion on boundaries, saying "no," de-escalation, and the importance of taking care of ourselves. Participants will learn the most critical elements to keep themselves safe and practice self-awareness. They will also punch, kick, block, yell and more. Build a strong foundation for strength and confidence. This is a youth-focused class. Parents are welcome to watch.

Please note: Participants must be registered for at least a morning or afternoon camp with Shakopee Community Education to be eligible to register for the Lunch Link program. Sign up for the Lunch Link program, and create a full day of fun for your child! Lunch Link takes place from 12-1pm on Monday-Thursday at Sweeney Elementary, and it is the perfect solution for families looking for full-day options. By providing a supervised lunch and recreation hour, Lunch Link connects morning and afternoon camps. The Lunch Link registration fee is in addition to camp registration, and students are required to bring their own lunch.
