Spring Break Enrichment Camp    

Thanks to a grant from a local foundation, Ouachita's Elrod Center has been able to provide spring break enrichment camps for the children of Arkadelphia.  The camp is designed to provide care for children who would otherwise be left unsupervised during the break.  In addition, the children are taught good character qualities through enriching activities.  College students are responsible for leading the camp.  The Elrod Center works closely with Arkadelphia Public Schools to plan and carry out the three days of activities.

The camp is held from 8:00am to 2:30pm each day.  In the evenings, the college student volunteers get together for dinner and fellowship (bowling, putt-putt, etc.).  

The college students are housed in the dorms and are provided free room, meals, and extracurricular activities.  

Arkadelphia Public Schools and the Elrod Center will once again host a spring break enrichment camp on March 22-24, 2004.  If you would like to be a part of the spring break team, you may fill out and submit an application on line or pick up an application from the Elrod Center.
