Kids and Teen Cooking Camps, Summer 2012

Is your kid a curious cook, or just loves to have fun?  Then let them flex their culinary muscles this summer with us!  Chef David Robertson is excited to lead our annual Kids and Teen Cooking Camps, this July and August at The Dirty Apron.

A parent himself, Chef David will share his passion for food with six lucky groups of culinary campers; students will learn about kitchen safety, the diversity of foods available to us locally, and how to transform those fresh ingredients into impressive dishes they'll be proud to eat.  With snacks provided mid-morning to keep the creative juices flowing, campers will end each day with a shared meal around our beautiful harvest table.  Along with this valuable kitchen know-how, campers will also gain leadership skills, the confidence that comes from creating something from scratch, and of course, new friends!  

Does your child shy away from unfamiliar foods?  There's help for that too!  Cooking provides a sense of familiarity with ingredients kids might otherwise reject, so being part of the meal-making process helps to curb pickiness.  Chef David explains this further in his interview with Better Together. 

With brand new menus unveiled later this year, participants in last year’s camps are more than welcome to return.  Tuition for the week ($490/person) includes instruction, daily recipe book, hands-on cooking with close supervision, snacks and fine dining.  All materials and equipment are provided.  At the end of the week all young chefs get to take home, you guessed it, their Dirty Apron.  Click here to register your child or teen.
