At the camp, you will help City archaeologists excavate a real archaeological site and preserve Alexandria’s historic resources! Campers will learn scientific excavating and artifact processing methods, in a way that is fun and will leave them wanting to know more. This year’s camp also includes a Counselor in Training (CIT) program for ages 16-17.
