Did you know that the Mir space station is named for the Russian word for "peace" or "world"? If you'd like to learn more about Russia, join us for Camp Sputnik, a week of exploring all things Russian, including language, music, cooking, crafts, and Slavic folklore (think werewolves and vampires)! You'll learn about life in Russia through hands-on activities in art, food, language, music, and stories.
