One Day Programs

Programming during a one day program usually includes three Day Classes, but depends

 greatly on the length of time a school is able to be at our Center.  Some schools prefer to

 be back on their own school campus by regular dismissal time, while other like to make a

 longer day of it, staying at Betsy-Jeff Penn well into the late afternoon.

The price is the same either way.

Meals in the dining hall are indeed available at an extra charge for One Day visitors, but

there are also picnic facilities available at no charge, for those who prefer to "brown bag".
