Camp
Half Blood Atlanta at the Little Shop of Stories, Decatur, Ga.,
convened this week. Based on Rick Riordan's series Percy Jackson and
the
Olympians, the camp has 32 campers who will be introduced to all things
Greek, including myths, language instruction, history, warrior
training, astronomy, art and music. The first day featured a visit
by Julia Prettie from Emory University, who led the group in an
improvisation exercise of Heracles and his Twelve Labors. Cabins of
Athena, Apollo, Ares, Hermes and Demeter also compete against each
other in daily Capture the Flag games.
