Fraser-Woods School is bringing Camp Invention, a national science and creativity day camp, back to Newtown for the second year with a new curriculum. Fraser-Woods has been selected to collaborate with Camp Invention, an educational outreach program from the National Inventors Hall of Fame Foundation.

Camp Invention is geared for children in grades one through six. The camp will be held at Fraser-Woods School the week of July 10â14 from 8:30 am to 3 pm. The camp maintains a low staff to camper ratio of one staff member for every eight campers.

Camp Invention is designed to inspire an enthusiasm for science and technology by providing hands on experiences that encourage children to learn through exploration.

The camp is open to anyone, not just students of Fraser-Woods School.

To register call 800-968-4332 or visit CampInvention.org.

Holly Kocet is pushing a false narrative. The facts simply don't bear out any negative impact to the traffic on Mt Pleasant Road. Saying it does , does not make it true. The road handles in excess of 40,000 trip a day. a couple hundred form Castle Hill is negatable.

A Development Must Be A Good Fit

Yea. great decision and it will add to the quality of comments posted.

Finally, The Time Has Come(And Some Reminders)

Not approving a development that has "checked" all the boxes because the NIMBY mob doesn't like it is wrong.

The town historically has strong collaboration with developers, but the primary obstacle arises from community opposition exerting undue influence on the zoning department. This "NIMBY" pressure often leads to project rejections that exceed the department's actual jurisdiction or authority. Consequently, developers face a limited set of options: either engage in expensive legal battles or leverage the Connecticut Affordable Housing Land Use Appeals Procedure (CGS § 8-30g) as a recourse.

Discusses Moratorium

You are correct, Bruce. I know how hard these plans are to put together, but I still believe that we can have more definitive and measurable goals. I know there are a number of units coming online, and the community truly needs them. If only we can move the development of affordable housing to more of a partnership between the community and the developers than the adversarial tug-of-war it seems to be now, that would be good progress.
