(Savannah Summer Camps 2019) Camp Moon River @ Savannah Country Day School

Wednesday, April 3rd, 2019

Camp Moon River Savannah Country Day School

Camp Moon River (CMR) at Savannah Country Day School : an overnight experience in a day camp package.

Camp Moon River is a full-day, traditional-style, summer day camp with an “overnight feel” for rising Kindergarten – 8th-grade children with a half-day program offered to rising Pre Kindergarten students who are 4-years old before their first day of camp. Optional extended care available.

Register online here. 

Camp Moon River’s mission is to provide a meaningful summer camp experience for campers and staff filled with personal growth, relationship building, and fun.

CMR is on the campus of the beautiful 65-acre Savannah Country Day School and is open to children from all schools.

The camp features daily water slides, weekly tie-dye and campfire experiences, as well as an incredible staff, the “CMR Crew.”

On Mondays, campers select a weekly choice they will attend every day, and each day they get to pick their daily choice. Daily and weekly choices allow campers to try new things or stick with their favorites as they progress through their CMR experience. Camp offers a variety of sports and games, arts and crafts, drama, cooking, dance and more. CMR also features Moon River field trips and Moon River Madness, an all-camp competition.

CMR is intentionally device-free. Even on a rainy day, you won’t see campers watching movies. Instead, campers play gym games, do an all-camp Pictionary or Charades competition, break out fantastic and creative building materials, chat and make friendship bracelets–the list is endless. The digital age is here to stay, but at CMR time is spent focusing on “IRL” connection.

Campers can attend one week or all eight weeks of Camp Moon River.

Find more information about Camp Moon River at Savannah Country Day School here.

Longtime philanthropic supporter of St. Andrew’s School receives 2019 John R. Chandler Award

Thursday, February 14th, 2019

St. Andrew's School Savannah preK Wilmington Island independent private

 

The Colonial Foundation and Rob Demere were presented with the John R. Chandler Award at the 2019 CASE (Council for Advancement and Support of Education) and NAIS (National Association of Independent Schools) Annual Conference in Philadelphia. The award recognizes the long-term support of a corporation or foundation toward the advancement of independent schools.

St. Andrew’s School   in Savannah nominated the Colonial Foundation and Demere for their longstanding philanthropic support to the independent school on Wilmington Island. They have given lead gifts for every major capital campaign in the 40-year history of the school, provided funding for financial assistance to qualified students through Georgia’s special tax redirection program, and have been a champion for the school in the local community.

“Over the years, the Demere family has supported many independent schools for their ability to transform our city and create meaningful progress,” said Head of School Dr. Kelley Waldron (pictured above with Rob Demere). “They also do so humbly and altruistically because it is the right thing to do. In fact, it took some convincing to get them to accept this award in honor of the tremendous impact they have had and continue to make in Savannah through the support of independent education and St. Andrew’s School.”

The award is named in honor of John R. Chandler, former assistant headmaster at the Hotchkiss School, and one of CASE’s first independent school trustees. Past recipients include American Honda Company, William Randolph Hearst Foundation and Mobil Corporation.

St. Andrew’s School  is a private, independent International Baccalaureate World School in Savannah inspiring young people age 3 through grade 12. Find more information here.
