There is a performance at the end of each two-week session. Daily activities include: sports, theatre and music games, crafts and practice for a performance.

CAMP LEADERSHIP CIT/LIT PROGRAMS: CIT is for young teens who already can speak fluently or who are almost fluent in the target language. They pay as campers and will be helped to refine their language skills and to learn how to work with younger students. They will be assigned specific tasks each day and discuss the day with the counselors daily. At the end of camp, each one who participated successfully will be able to receive a recommendation from the director in the case that they apply to work at another camp. They also may become eligible eventually to be paid assistants in our camp when they are old enough (currently 18).

All activities - music, theatre, crafts, sports, recess, and games - will be used by the staff to lead to an enrichment in the target language. The program attracts both those who are fluent (who concentrate mostly on the arts aspect and the fun and who can become leaders, helping their peers to speak better) and those who are beginners and of various levels of language speaking.

All speak at a native level: most are native speakers.

USA Chess thrives on providing a structured environment that is extremely conducive to learning chess. We handpick the best children's chess instructors from all over the United States and bring them to each camp. We believe our team is most effective in teaching chess to children of all ages and levels. The exceptional organization and ever-fun curriculum has fueled much interest from scholastic players and coaches from around the country, prompting them to request USA Chess camps in their areas.

At the same summer camp locations, we also offer the immensely popular Gamebuilder Video Game Creation Camps, The Active Learning Computer Animation Programs, and other Computer Enrichment Programs such as Modding, Networking and Hosting with Minecraft. We now offer seven unique programs in all.

CAMP PROGRAM INFO: Since 2001, Steve has been named one of Golf Magazine’s Top 100 golf instructors in the United States. He is currently the only TOP 100 in the Washington, DC metro area and was named the Middle Atlantic PGA Teacher of the Year for the second time, only the second person in history with this accomplishment.

Steve’s Academy is based in the heart of the nation’s capital. He is serving as an adjunct professor for the national PGA Education Committee, teaching the future teachers of the game how to teach. His list of clients includes many of the movers and shakers in the nation’s capital, including some of the best players on the professional golf tours, members of the entertainment industry, and CEOs and presidents of major corporations.

But one of Steve’s real passions is for instructing junior golfers maybe because he knows junior golf first-hand, with four of his own children playing and competing. He has walked countless practice and tournament rounds, both as a parent with his children, as a coach with his team for a private school, as well as a teacher with his many junior students. He has guided hundreds of juniors from the entire MidAtlantic region to college scholarships, again, starting with his own family.

Steve has been involved with junior competitive golf starting with US Kids, AJGA, state events, to college championships and many more in-between. Steve knows the “ins and outs” of junior golf planning and college recruiting, again speaking first hand from personal experience.

Two of his sons played at the University of Maryland and his youngest daughter is finishing up playing for the Towson Tigers. His youngest son, Sean, won the Maryland Amateur, two Maryland Opens, and was the first alternate on site at the 2016 US Open at Oakmont. Most recently, Sean earned his PGA/Latin America Tour card for 2017.

As a player, Steve understands what it’s like to stand on the first tee and be so nervous that it’s hard to breathe. He has played in three PGA Tour events, one Kemper Open and two Anheuser-Busch Classics. He owns one course record of 10 under par 62, which has stood for over 35 years. His personal experience in those extremely stressful conditions has helped him know how to teach his students to deal and be successful in the same competitive situations - tournament golf.

Steve has learned and observed from many of the world’s finest teachers including Jim Flick, Paul Runyan, Dave Pelz, Hank Haney, Martin Hall, Mac O’Grady, Jimmy Ballard, Ben Doyle, Dr. Bob Rotella and Bill Strasbaugh, to name a few. His thirst for knowledge has led him on a quest to learn as much about the golf swing and all that is involved in achieving ones potential and goals. He has learned and communicate the breakdown of the golf swing into simple, easy-to-understand concepts for his students. He believes in building on one swing change at a time, at a pace his students can apply successfully.

CAMP PROGRAM INFO: At Camp IO, children ages 5-12 have fun with hands-on science activities and making cool things. They take a look at how everyday objects work and the world around them. Each day, campers switch their outer science tools for a yoga mat and learn about the inner science of yoga. They learn about fun and easy ways to stay healthy and harmonize their bodies, minds and energy to decrease stress, increase endurance and improve focus.

Our mission is to offer children a safe, fun, encouraging and enriching environment to learn and practice the outer science of engineering and the inner science of yoga. All of our activities combine inquiry-based learning with the STEAM (Science Technology Engineering Arts Mathematics) initiative in mind.

“Hands-on” means that your child can engage the five senses when learning. Research shows that more information is retained when learning is active and participant-based. Camp IO is an exciting and engaging way for children to learn, be enriched and interact in a mindful way with the world around them.

Camp IO was created by Antoinette Murray (Murray Educational Services), Joseph Murray and Valencia Wood (SoilSound). Together, they provide an exceptional hands-on science and yoga experience. In addition to Camp IO, they offer programs in public and private schools and conduct workshops for children and adults in Howard County, Baltimore County, Baltimore City, Washington, DC and Virginia.

Run & directed by Jeff Antoniuk, an internationally respected jazz composer and musician whose concerts and recordings are consistently well received by critics, he is accompanied by a world class faculty, ever changing each year. The camp includes personal classes, with a 1:7 ratio of Faculty to Student. Instrument specific masterclasses, Theory class electives, and a final concert at the end of the week are all part of the JazzWire Summer Summit experience.

JazzWire.net, our online platform is 100% integrated with The JazzWire Summer Summit experience, and you will become a subscriber ($49.95/ mo) to receive all the benefits. JazzWire is home to over 250 adult amateur and semi-pro musicians like you, from around the world, folks are learning, playing, practicing and progressing together like never before.

MOST of our playing at The Summit is in a jazz small group – no time wasted sitting in boring classes! We have only 25 spots for Session 1 (July 15 - 17, 2022) and 50 spots for Session 2/In Person (July 20 - 23, 2022). We are open to all instruments (and vocals). The moral of the story . . . don’t delay, these spots go fast!

YEAR-ROUND PROGRAMS: ALL participants who attend The Summit will become JazzWire members, so your experience at The JazzWire Summit will be more in-depth than you will get at ANY other workshop on earth. You’ll be playing with your peers from the three JazzWire Online Communities, folks who you know and respect. We’ll be working on the JazzWire Summit music for months before the workshop (and for months after), so everyone will be showing up with some homework already done. We’ll be ready to play!

PLEASE NOTE: the initial six-month monthly subscription ($49.95/month) commitment to JazzWire still applies; see JazzWire Terms and Conditions for more information: Our Camp Website Link: wp.jazzwire.net
