Children ages 6-12 can learn Mountain Brook history through a new interactive scavenger hunt. Catherine Pittman Smith, author of Images of America: Mountain Brook, is leading a Mountain Brook History Scavenger Hunt. One camp will be Tuesday, July 14 and the other Wednesday, July 15. Both run 9 a.m.-noon at Mountain Brook City Hall.
Campers will tour parts of the city and learn about the past and how it evolved into what it looks like today.
“It’s a fun way to learn Mountain Brook history, and I think these kids will be much more invested in their community if they know who the founders were and all the fun stories behind it,” Smith said. “We’ll do it in a fun way.”
The camp costs $60, which an includes autographed copy of the book ($24 value), a scavenger hunt passport, and Steel City Pops at the end of camp. For more information or to register, call 492-3350 or email catherine@catherinepittmansmith.com.
