Leisure, Travel & Tourism - Browns Town, St. Ann Parish, Jamaica
We found it distressing to realize how many children of Jamaican descent don't know names like Bob Marley, Louise Bennett-Coverley, and Usain Bolt – each a leader in their field and each a proud Jamaican. Sadder still were those who know of Harry Belafonte, Grace Jones, and Colin Powell, but never realized that they're also from Jamaican roots.The reality is that as our community globalizes, Jamaica's rich culture and heritage are getting lost. We at Irie Camp Jamaica find that to be unacceptable!So we've established a fun, safe, caring environment for children to learn about Jamaican culture. Some are children of the island, while others are children of the diaspora. And we're happy to invite them all to explore and embrace Jamaica's rich diversity, form a sense of Jamaican identity, and know the important contribution Jamaicans have been making to the world for hundreds of years.We see Irie Camp Jamaica as an Island on an Island, providing campers with a full immersion in Jamaica's cultural roots, promoting awareness and understanding of the island's arts, music, language, and rich history. We'll accomplish this through a committed and comprehensively trained staff, tapping into the resources of the community, and giving our campers and their families an experience they'll never forget.
