After a two-year hiatus of our Summer Guard Camp in 2018/2019 (due to the High School Construction), we decided we needed one more camp to see all of your smiling faces. Jennifer has previously organized/choreographed “Game Day” camps in Hillsborough County for numerous years… Welp, we brought it to Tarpon last year and we are bringing it back for 2019!

GameDayRegistrationGame Day Camp will be open to Tiny Tots (3 – 6, potty trained), Minis (7-10) and Juniors (Grades 6 – 8 only.) Your dancers will spend a Saturday morning with our staff and the High School Leadership Conservatory Dancers as they learn a routine together to perform at the following weeks Friday Night Football Game at Tarpon Springs High School. Sign up your children to perform with the High School Dancers on the Tarpon Springs Football Field under the Friday Night Lights! See below for more details/dates.
