The 2016 iCivics Summer Camp was held at Gilbert Middle School on Friday, June 10.
The camp was free and open to students in Lexington District One. The theme of this
year’s summer camp was “The Electoral College.” The camp was led by three of the
district’s iCivics teachers – Mrs. Miriam Ma?hews from Gilbert Middle, Mrs. Janet
Reamy from Carolina Springs Middle, and Mrs. Melody Shafer from Meadow Glen
Middle. Students explored the electoral process and actually ran for the office of President of the United
States by playing the iCivics game Win the White House. The guest speaker for the camp was South Carolina
State Senator Katrina Shealy, who spoke to the students about her experiences running for poli�cal office. Stu-
dents who a?ended the camp from Gilbert Middle were Taylor Armstrong, Serria Ricard, Luke Taylor, and Wil-
liam Williamson.
