About This Activity

During this first week, students will be given the case materials that will be used during the second week of camp.

Students then will be given roles to play for the trial. During that week, two students will work on and prepare for the trial that would be done on the last day of the camp. Students would be encouraged to dress the part and be prepared to participate in the trial with their roles. Some would be lawyers (doing openings, directs, crosses, and closings.) Some would be witnesses playing different roles (defendant, expert witnesses, lay witnesses - character witnesses etc.) A $15 CANCELLATION FEE WILL BE ASSESSED FOR CANCELLATION OF ANY CAMP REGISTRATION.
