Summer Enrichment Opportunity for Teens

March 2, 2026 by Daniel Dignan Leave a Comment

I will publish an interview on Thursday at 7 PM about summer camps for teens at Patrick Henry College. It’s a massive enrichment opportunity, one that I benefited from when I was a teen. The program director shares what parents can expect and what the student outcomes are.

The camps include Constitutional Law, Speech, Literature & History, Journalism & Digital Media, Drama & Theater, Leadership & Worldview, and more.

These high-quality Christian camps provide abundant spiritual, intellectual, and social encouragement, as well as opportunities for students to broaden their horizons and to be challenged to be all they can be now for the future.

Teen Leadership Camps

April 5, 2025 by Daniel Dignan Leave a Comment

Last week, I attended the 25th anniversary celebration of Patrick Henry College, a top liberal arts college located in Purcellville, Virginia. Started by Mike Farris, constitutional attorney and Homeschool Legal Defense founder, it champions Christian, conservative, and classical education.

While I did not attend the college, as a teenager, I participated in their Teen Leadership Camps, in particular, the spy and literature camps. They combined rigorous learning and instruction opportunities with evening games.

I am a believer in summer camps like these for teenagers. They help kids get out of their comfort zones, open new horizons, and help kids develop socially, spiritually, and intellectually.
