Sign up through the link in our bio for Stand Up! Speak Out! Summer Camp for rising 3rd–5th graders at Descanso Gardens! ☀️💐

Here’s a look back at last year’s second session, where campers built skills to maintain positive friendships, communicate effectively, feel their best, and approach challenges with confidence.

Camp activities included performing skits in the amphitheater, creative projects, games, planting succulents, riding the train, scavenger hunts, and exploring Descanso’s beautiful paths and waterfalls.

We can’t wait to be back at Descanso Gardens again this summer! ☺️
