Introducing
“LatinSummer at UMass,” a two-day summer enrichment program that
provides students in grades 1-6 a unique chance to learn about Latin and
the classical world! Creative and enthusiastic instructors will provide
a wide array of exciting and hands-on activities that introduce

decade in locations across the nation. LatinSummer at UMass will run
from 9:00 am – 3:30 pm during the weekend of June 1 – 2, 2013 on the
campus of the University of Massachusetts Amherst. LatinSummer is
