Benefits
Tyler’s Camp. The Summer Learning Collaborative’s Tyler’s Camp offers Delaware’s low-income middle-school students a chance to explore new ideas and uncover unknown talents. Campers select from a suite of music, technology, sports and arts opportunities, coupled with daily engagement with leadership development, STEAM-based curriculum, and literacy instruction. In 2019, we offered over 450 campers from across Delaware six weeks of access to extraordinary summer experiences, all free of charge. Originally held at the Salesianum School, which continues to generously donate its campus and facilities, Tyler’s Camp was founded in memory of Tyler Ritchie Brown, who was killed in a car crash in March 2016 while a senior at Salesianum. Tyler was the epitome of a modern-day Renaissance man. He explored, tried, succeeded, and sometimes failed, but he never failed to try again. In his spirit, we built this program to increase access to creative arts, performing arts, and athletics programs for low-income kids in our state. Tyler’s legacy and impact continue to grow, as SummerCollab has now established Tyler’s Camps at five different locations throughout Delaware. We are honored to continue our work in Tyler’s memory, and thank all of our supporters and partners for their commitment to Tyler’s Camps and Delaware’s kids.
This year’s guest race starter will be the 1996 Olympic gold medalist Anthuan Maybank and he will also be at the start of the race to greet participants.
