The summer break is still a few months away, but now is the time to register your kids for camp if you’re hoping to land a spot in some of the most popular programs.
This summer, kids can travel the world or explore the galaxies without leaving home. For future entertainers, an assortment of dance, music and performing arts programs are among the offerings.
And if your child is a gamer or loves horseback riding or are interested in a career in law, there are camps for their interests too.
