Detail: Day camp, much like school, gave students the opportunity to interact with their peers. Some children required care as their parents worked 12 hour shifts in the factories or in the fields. Child care centers offered several activities, especially during the summer. Barney Sasaki, a resident at Seabrook in 1944, recalls summers at Seabrook. “Games like Jintori, Espanella, Sink the Battleship, Chicken Fights, and Annie [...] I especially remember warm, summer evening “Jin-tori” games by the Child Care Center.” Here, children play at the beach as one of the many trips and scheduled activities provided to the residential children.
