Option 1
Kappa Kamp, is open to all Kappa Leaguers across the country and is held every year during July at the Piney Woods Country Life School located about 20 miles south of Jackson, MS. The school is one of only four historically black boarding schools remaining in the United States. Founded in 1909, the institution has had only three presidents: Dr. Laurence C. Jones, Dr. James S. Wade, and Dr. Charles H. Beady, Jr., all members of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc. Piney Woods has won national acclaim and attention for its work in educating black children.
Since 1996, Kappa Kamp at Piney Woods has provided young males ages 12-16 with opportunities to acquire skills and experience through intensive workshops. Students may choose from several enrichment camps and classes. The students may also attend a variety of cultural and recreational activities, arts and crafts workshops, field trips, and educational lectures.
The seven primary objectives of Kappa Kamp are to: (1) provide enrichment activities for students in grades six through ten; (2) motivate students to seek higher levels of achievement; (3) expose students to activities rich in cultural information and experiences; (4) develop students’ reading, writing, and speaking skills while involved in each workshop;
(5) provide experiences that focus on science, technology and survival; (6) allow campers to make friends from around the world in a structured, safe environment; and (7) provide a Christian atmosphere for character education, citizenship, and human growth and development in an ethical environment.
