Portland Timbers and Thorns Fans and Soccer Players,

Summer is quickly approaching, which means Timbers and Thorns youth summer camps are just around the corner! With multiple camps happening each week throughout the greater-Portland area and Southwest Washington, this summer will surely be one to remember! Their camps provide fantastic opportunity for kids to learn new skills and abilities, play exciting games, and most importantly have FUN! All of their summer listings and registration for camps can be found at www.timbers.com under the Youth tab, and then under Camps.

2016 Summer Day Camps (Boys & Girls Ages 5-13)

Campers will receive a Timbers Camp T-shirt and 50 percent off all items at the adidas Employee store – good for a month, sent in an email at the end of each camp with details. Campers who attend Providence Park camps will also have an opportunity to see the first-team locker room, plus a chance to see the Timber’s MLS Championship trophy! Player Appearances are subject to availability; the first team typically trains in the morning, so there is a better chance that player appearances will happen in the afternoon. There are both half-day and full-day camp sessions, and registrations are filling up quickly!

***Club specific camps (ex. Westside Timbers, Eastside Timbers, etc.) are open to any soccer players, no matter what club you play for!

***Summer Day Camps are coed – open to both Boys and Girls!

2016 Summer Timbers/Thorns Residential Camps (Boys & Girls Ages 12-18)

The Portland Timbers/Thorns Residential Camps will be open to players interested in trying out for the Timbers U16 and U18 Academy teams, the Thorns U15 and U17 Academy teams, players trying out for their high school teams and high school teams who want to come in together as a team. With the Timbers under MLS mandate to field US Soccer Academy teams in 2016, the Timbers Residential Camp will incorporate both an Academy Prep group and a High School prep group. The 2016 camps had close to 110 players in attendance, with some incredible feedback from players and coaches alike!

How do I register for camp?

All camps are listed on the Timbers Website at www.timbers.com. under the Youth/Camp tab, or, you can click here for the list of camps they will offer this summer. Once you find the camp you are looking for, you can click the ‘register’ button, and that will take you to their registration page. You will be asked to create an account with your campers’ information in it. Once you have created your account, you will be able to register for camp. The list is broken up by month and type of camp (half-day or full-day), unless you are looking for the Providence Park camps; those will be found under Providence Park half-day or full-day camps.

As always, if you have any questions about the Timbers Camp Program, please feel free to email the Timbers Camp Manager, Brittney Elsensohn, at belsensohn@timbers.com.

Masters School of Art is a non-denominational Christian art school adhering to conservative values. We aim to be above reproach in both curriculum and theory.  MSOA Foundational Studies and College Program strongly support the classical arts. Our goal is to teach the secrets of the old masters, bringing back the craft of the Renaissance. Foundational to the visual arts program is representational drawing, the mastery of which opens the door to versatility in subject and medium.

MSOA’s teachers and staff are committed to excellence in teaching and in developing a positive class atmosphere. Small classes and individual attention help each student reach his or her maximum potential.

We aspire to create a school where different disciplines of the arts (drawing, painting, graphics, multimedia, music, dance, drama, film, etc.) work hand in hand, supporting and strengthening one another, and our goal is to use the arts to minister to churches, the community, and the world.
