OXFORD, Miss. – University of Mississippi faculty and staff looking for activities for their school-aged children during the week of fall break have a new option this year with the extension of the popular UM Rebel Quest camp.

The new Fall Rebel Quest will be held Monday and Tuesday (Nov. 20-21) on the Oxford campus.

“There are many employees who need activities for their elementary-aged children during the week of Thanksgiving,” project coordinator Amy Goodin said. “We wanted to give children a fun, learning environment where they could be while local elementary schools are closed.”

Fall Rebel Quest will feature hands-on activities, reading enrichment, indoor and outdoor play, and team building activities for first- through sixth-graders.

The camp costs $70 and will be held 7:30 a.m.-5:30 p.m. both days in Lamar Hall.

Twenty seats are available for the first- through third-grade group and 20 seats for the fourth- through sixth-grade group. Registration is on a first-come, first-served basis.
