Radio Camp 2014 – Day 6 – “When I’m Older…”
On our sixth day of Radio Camp, campers were asked what they would like to be when they grow up.

Radio Camp 2014 – Day 5 – “Who Am I” Game
On our fifth day of Radio Camp, we decided to readdress nuanced discipline known as “Proper Microphone Technique.” But, to make it more fun we played the “Who Am I” game where students each received a sticky note, wrote down the name of a famous person, then stuck said note to a neighbor’s forehead.

On our second day of Radio Camp, campers were introduced to our trademark recording roles of: Producer, Engineer and Talent.

Each camper then wrote down and recorded three unique things about themselves.
Radio Camp 2014 – Day 1 – Ice Breakers
On our very first day of Radio Camp at the Summer Dreamers Academy (at Pittsburgh Faison) campers got a chance to learn about one another through team building games like two truths and a lie. Believe it or not, none of the campers have been to the Moon or eaten dog food.
