UE Celebrates Successful 2023 Summer Camp Season

Evansville, Ind. (07/06/2023) — The University of Evansville (UE) is proud to announce a successful conclusion of the 2023 summer camps. The University hosted an exciting week of Pride, Art, STEM, Music, and Dance camps, which drew in a remarkable total of approximately 200 enthusiastic campers.

Throughout the week, campers had the opportunity to explore their passions and develop new skills in a variety of fields. The Pride and Dance camps, which offered a residential experience, had an attendance of nearly 50 campers. Meanwhile, the Art, STEM, and Music camps attracted an average of 125 to 135 campers daily, providing an engaging and enriching experience for all participants.

The highlight of this summer camp season was the highly anticipated Showcase, which took place in Neu Chapel on Friday, June 23, from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. This event provided campers with a platform to display their creativity and showcase the knowledge and abilities they had acquired throughout the week.

The Showcase brought in 250 family members and friends who gathered to support and witness the incredible works of art, scientific projects, musical performances, and dance routines created by the campers.

"We are thrilled with the overwhelming response and the talent displayed by our campers during this summer season," said Apryl Weatherford, Director of Youth Programs.
