Here at Durham Academy summer camp, it is kind of like school only a lot more fun. It is for a five week period, and there are 4 periods per day. And there are also 2 blocks per day. And each person had a seminar that he or she went to daily for the first two weeks. There was Weather, Marine Mammals, Engineering, Water Quality,
