Mrs. B’s Royal Ball has it all! During this evening to remember, Mrs. B leads young guests on adventures in comportment and social graces, all while having a BALL!
We explore what it means to be formal in both attire and attitude. Guests are encouraged to arrive donning their royal garments, but we also have accessories galore for them to choose from. An elegant table setting, complete with a fancy pizza dinner and delectable sweets (as well as manners to match the occasion), will complement dancing, a treasure hunt, and a short flick on the big-screen.
An evening like this brings out the best in everyone! Your child will refresh his or her everyday approach to using (and enjoying) good manners and return home polished and poised.
This evening is designed as a public event that encourages meeting new friends, practicing good manners, and experiencing the tearoom with Mrs. B. Please refrain from bulk purchases of tickets, so our guests can mix and mingle with new friends.

CITs take a more active leadership role in learning effective ways to interact with younger children, help with set up, cleanup and transitioning between crafts and activities. They have a behind the scenes view of camp and become part a valued part of our TEAm. CITs receive advanced training in the art of etiquette and social graces while also enjoying a spot of tea and all the other fun aspects of camp.
Staff will work with CITs to develop a more advanced approach to the skills we teach and model as well as review their progress and performance.
