Catch site-coordinator + musician extraordinaire, Mr. Daniel, at our summer camps this summer! 🎵😎

Even if you don't have a student at Travis Heights Elementary, you might know Mr. Daniel from our Music & Movement series, performances at community events, or from previous summer camps.

We can't wait to see the fun, exciting (and probably musical 🎶) projects he's dreaming up for our Downtown + Central summer camps including Fairytale Adventures and Deep Sea Explorers! 🧚🐳
