<p>In the camp for boys and girls ages 4 to 7, your child will have fun playing Flag Football, Soccer, T-Ball, Relay Races, and Tag games. This camp will focus on fundamentals while allowing children to gain an interest in sports. The camp is designed to let children experience different sports and physical activities in a fun learning environment.</p>
<p>The camp for boys and girls ages 8 to 12 will allow your child to have fun playing Basketball, Flag Football, Dodge Ball, Relay Races, and Kickball. This camp will explore positioning, defense, offense, passing, receiving, and running. Each level takes the skills taught and applies them on the field during fun drills and scrimmages. The camp will provide a positive and energetic environment where your child stays active on the field. They are provided with the very best instruction geared toward improving skills. </p>
<p>Each day, the camp will highlight a sportsmanship value for the kids to focus on. The instructors will award sportsmanship medals to each participant based on learning this value.</p>
<p>i9 Sports and the Town of Superior believe that the primary reason children play sports is to have fun. They love mastering new skills, developing friendships, and healthy competition. i9 Sports works on developing character, the value of teamwork, fair play, and good sportsmanship.

<p>Public Works’ first production, “Wanda & The Wave,” will open in Boulder on June 21-23 at The Wesley Chapel, and show in Lafayette on July 13-14 at The Mary Miller Theater. This whimsical tale about appreciating the world around us will be told through puppetry and is adapted by Blanchard from the children’s book <i>The Old Woman and The Wave</i> by Shelley Jackson.</p>
<p>The show will feature live music scored by local virtuoso musician Brian Mullins of Eldorado Springs, a founding member of the popular local bands Colcannon and Laughing Hands. Shoshana Bass of Boulder, who has worked with the internationally renowned Sandglass Theater, is collaborating with Blanchard on the show’s development and puppet design, as well as performing.</p>
<p>In July, Public Works Theatre Company is offering its “Clown Mini-Camp for Kids” to “explore the fine art of silliness.” Campers will learn traditional clown pieces and present their own showing on the last day of camp. There will be two sessions for different age groups: Session 1 will run July 8-12 for ages 5-8 and Session 2 will run July 15-19 for ages 9-12. The camp will be held at the First United Methodist Church in Lafayette, and registration is currently open. <a href="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/1051697535?profile=original" target="_self"><img width="150" src="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/1051697535?profile=RESIZE_180x180" width="150" class="align-right"/></a></p>
<p>Blanchard, who has been performing, teaching and making new theatre for the past 25 years, is an adjunct faculty member at Naropa University and UNC Greeley, and holds an MFA in Theatre: Contemporary Performance from Naropa University. She is a graduate of UC Santa Cruz and the Dell’Arte International School of Physical Theatre, and previously worked as an actor and founded two theatre companies in Philadelphia before relocating to Colorado.</p>
<p>Locally, Blanchard has performed with companies including The Catamounts, Band of Toughs, Zen Cabaret and Theatre V, and she has taught at the Arvada Center, Rocky Mountain Theatre for Kids and The Art Underground, as well as other local schools. She recently earned a Fulbright Scholar grant to teach for a semester in Greece in 2014.</p>
