Apple Camp '08 schedule posted

Today Apple posted the schedule for Apple Camp. Apple Camp is held at Apple retail stores for kids 8-12 to go learn about creative things like: making presentations with Keynote, taking and managing photos with iPhoto, creating music with GarageBand, and making movies with iMovie.

Each sessions lasts about 3 hours and is available at all Apple retail locations. Kids attending will receive a DVD or CD with their creations on it, field guide, t-shirt, and will be able to get other giveaways. Best of all, Apple Camp is free though registration is required.

Kids under 13 must have a parent/guardian present; otherwise, you'll have to bring an Apple permission slip (PDF link). You can now register on Apple's Camp registration website.

Apple Camp schedule is now available

Apple's "Apple Camp" is a series of workshops at retail stores intended for younger kids - aged 8 to 12 years - and their families. The schedule for 2007 has been made available, and all sessions will take place in July. Topics to be covered include making a podcast, iWeb and iPhoto, working with digital music and making a movie.

Apple describes just what "campers" should bring to class, as well as what they'll come away with. Sounds like a really fun time.

A letter from Apple Camp

I wrote about Apple Camp, the program that Apple runs in its stores to teach kids the finer points of Macs, a few months ago. Now, I don't have any children so there is very little chance that I would end up at Apple Camp (and if I did it would be a little creepy), however, Peter Cohen of Macworld does have children and they wanted to go Apple Camp.

Read all about Peter's experience there (the short version: the kids liked it, and the parents bought stuff) and maybe it'll be enough to convince you to sign your kids up. Plus, I am sure you could use a new MacBook Pro.

Apple Camp details posted

Summer is almost upon us, and you know what that means! Corn on the cob, lemonade, and Apple Camp for the kids! What's Apple Camp you ask? Why it is a free program that Apple runs in all of the Apple Stores that let's kids and their parents have some hands on fun with Macs.

This year there is a podcast workshop, a webpage workshop, a music workshop, and a movie making workshop. You can sign up for two of these free workshops, but please remember that there are targeted at kids 8 to 12 years of age.

Space is limited and each workshop's registration is strictly first come first serve.
