Summer Programs 2

Are you looking for a summer camp for your child, but would like it even better if it were a great educational experience too? We have the activities you would find at summer camp - weekly swimming and field trips, arts and crafts, sports and activities, and lots of fun - plus learning experiences through computers, cooking, drama, games, recreational reading, etc., so that it really is a complete summer enrichment program!

There are two kinds of full-day summer programs. Our general "Discovery Summer" enrichment program will have swimming, arts and crafts, team sports, field trips, and various activities, like in previous years, when we called it a "summer camp," but we're building up and emphasizing the discovery and enrichment dimension more now.
