The BND 2024 Summer Media Camp returns for its fifth year
RICHMOND, Va.
The BND 2024 Summer Media Camp combines journalism and multi-platform news media technology for Richmond-area middle and high school students. Now in its fifth year, the camp inspires students to create and display individual work online.
Led by veteran journalist and college educator Bonnie Newman Davis, this year’s camp will take place July 8-19, 2024. The location is Second Baptist Church, West End, 1400 Idlewood Ave., Richmond, Va. 23220.
Why a news media camp?

Besides learning media literacy and developing technical skills, other activities will include visits to local media outlets. At the end of the camp, students’ work will be showcased in a collaborative project.
