Thanks for the shout-out Daniel! 

Adrian, Daniel is right in thinking most of our programs are designed for younger (4-8 grade) or older students (college), but we have done some work with high school students. You could contact our education coordinator for more information - Katie Ahern, kahern [at] presidiotrust [dot] gov.

What did you have in mind? Better yet, how much would someone be willing
to spend? This one pops up a lot, but it's also expensive:
http://www.crowcanyon.org/archaeology_adventures/summer_camps.asp 
The folks at the Presidio might have more information
http://www.presidio.gov/history/archaeology/education/ though most of
their summer camps and other programs appear aimed at slightly younger
or slightly older kids. Still, they might have better information on
local resources or activities that she may find of interest.
Looks like the Passport in Time stuff with the Forest Service
http://www.passportintime.com/ usually has a minimum age requirement of
18, but there are some sessions that allow 15-year olds with a
responsible adult.
This site looks promising, but our government filters are blocking
access to the Archaeology Adventures page
http://www.archaeologydigs.blogspot.com/ 

Good luck, and I have to say, "Summer Programming" sounds a little
Orwellian.

Dear all,

I have a young acquaintance (a Freshman in high school) in the San
Francisco
Bay Area who is really excited about history and archaeology. She is
trying
to find some sort of summer activity related to archaeology - a course,
camp, volunteer project, or similar.

I don't know of anything aimed at her age group. If any of you do, could
you
pass on the info to me?

With thanks,

Adrian
