The West Goshen Park and Recreation Department is partnering with Fairman's Skate, Snow, and Surf Shop to offer week-long skateboarding camps for children eight through twelve years old. Please note the West Goshen Township Newsletter had mistakenly identified the age range as six through twelve years old. Seven-year olds who participated last year may participate again this year. First-time participants must be at least eight years old. We apologize for any confusion. Camp will take place at Robert Lambert Park Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM until noon. Choose from the following sessions:

• Session 1: SOLD OUT
• Session 2: July 11-15
• Session 3: August 15-19

Cost is $150 for West Goshen residents, or $160 for residents of other municipalities.
