Through fun activities young people 4th through 12th grade will be exposed to Denmark - its history, people, language, culture, and traditions. This year's theme will be Castles. The campers will learn about the stories of knights, kings, and queens and their life in the Keep. They will learn about the most famous castle, Kronborg Castle, the setting of Shakespeare's Hamlet. Another interesting one is Sønderborg which is most known for being in the midst of battles of the Slesvig-Holstein wars, as well as other interesting Castles of Denmark. With help from a counselor from Denmark campers will learn Danish language and history directly from a Danish native. At Himmelbjerget Danish Camp, unique on the Pacific Coast, you will meet new friends and have an unforgettable time!
