Complete the parent/guardian form
One form per girl. It takes a few minutes, and Ella reads every one.
Watch for two emails
A confirmation right after you register, then a details email, including the location, in the days before camp.

Two days from 9:30 AM to 3:00 PM, ending with a small showcase.
Registration is open

Made possible by the community
Bloom & Build runs on community sponsorship.

Ready when you are
Her two days can begin with one form.
