In Mt. Vernon, first through seventh graders are invited to Strike A Pose with the Studio RLC Style Team from 9 a.m. – 3 p.m. Thursday, June 9 at Studio RLC in Mt. Vernon. During camp, students will learn the latest fashions and trends in basic skin care, make-up, nail care, hair styles, poise, and etiquette. At the end of the day, campers will strut their stuff on a runway walk.
The camp costs $35 and includes lunch. Each camper should bring their favorite outfit for the walk and parents and guardians should arrive early to see the show.
