Only the best of the best become our camp staff. Take a look at what goes in to recruiting, hiring and training our staff!

Tegan Lentz – Camp Director

This is Tegan’s second summer with Edventure More. An Art and Science Instructor last year, Tegan’s favorite part of the summer was Edmo in the Park, so it’s no surprise that she’s so excited to return this year as Camp Director. Tegan completed her degree in Mechanical Engineering from Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, and worked as an engineer just long enough to learn that it wasn’t where her passion lay. She recently completed her teaching credential at San Jose State and looks forward to teaching middle school science next year. When she isn’t helping kids find their next discovery, Tegan enjoys reading, music, fitness, and outdoor activities with her dog, Bailey.

One of the best things is to see how campers learn and grow from their time at camp. I can’t wait to see what each child gains from this year’s program! I’m really really excited about all the fun that we’ll have at camp this summer, but I think the thing that will be the very best is sharing all the “aha” moments with campers. There’s nothing that beats that!”

Andrew Ignacio – Arts and Science Instructor

2013 will be Andrew Ignacio’s first summer as an Art and Science instructor with Camp Edmo and his excitement cannot be overstated. Andrew understands the classroom setting does not always meet the needs of students and that often, children need assistance with finding different outlets for their creativity. He has a deep understanding of those who are seeking their identity and knows that community empowerment begins with positive youth development.

Tax Time Fun Facts: Did you know that enrollment fees in Camp Edmo qualify as a childcare tax credit for children 12 and under? Yup, they do. Know what else? Any donation you make to Edventure More, large or small, are not only profoundly appreciated, but also fully tax-deductible.

The way I see it is, if public school is free yet lacking in art and science, then I can pay for it during the summer. I feel it fills a crucial void in standard education (as currently funded in CA) even in our very nice school. I just wish all kids could have the same experience.”

I look forward to camp season every year because the developmental improvements that I see from my kids. This is owed completely to the wonderful experiences that they have at Camp. The social developments and the variety of activities and support from staff help my family so much!!”

I went to the family afternoon last Friday. It was a great experience. The songs, games, and animation that was shown to the parents were excellent. If this is a snapshot of the interaction between camp counselor and the children at the camp, Camp Edmo is stellar and excellent…. if I can in the future, my older daughter and her sister, when she is of age, will be attending for as long as they can. All of the camp counselors, instructors, and the director at Alameda whom I have interacted with are fabulous! Thank you!”

I have been extremely pleased with the program. My son has never showed so much excitement. In fact I wish Roosevelt Elementary in San Leandro had an after school program like yours.”

A very good aspect of camp for our family is that one location can accommodate two ages: edmo for my younger one, and edtech for the older one.”

Every day after pick-up, my daughter tells her 4 yr old brother about all the artwork she did and the interesting facts she learned that day. My son then regurgitates the information to their Dad when he comes home from work. “Dad, did you know the daddy seahorse takes care of the babies in his pouch?” Then, of course, my daughter chimes in with more details. I feel like the whole family is attending Camp Edmo this week! It’s great.”
