Video Summer Camp open

PEGASYS, Enid’s public access television station, is offering its fourth annual Video Summer Camp June 12-16.

The camp is geared toward students ages 12-17 and will include 40 hours of intensive, hands-on training covering all aspects of television production. As a final project, students will produce a video that will air on Suddenlink Cable Channel 11 throughout the summer.

“By the end of the week, each student will be able to include television producer on his or her resume,” said Wendy Quarles, PEGASYS executive director. “This will be a great learning experience, and they’ll have a lot of fun.”

Applications are being accepted, and enrollment is on a first-come, first-served basis. The camp will accommodate 10. Cost is $150 each, but sponsors are being solicited to help defray a portion of the cost. Officials said the camp is expected to cost approximately $75 each for those attending. A non-refundable registration fee of $25 per camper must accompany the application. Students must bring sack lunches June 12-15. Drinks and snacks will be provided.

Daily sessions are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. June 12-15 and 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. June 16. An awards ceremony will be June 16.

For information on camp registration, call Stephanie Wnetrzak, PEGASYS public relations/membership coordinator, at 237-0099 or Stephanie@pegasys.org.
