Rockets will blast off toward distant galaxies, acrobats will swing under the Big Top, super heroes will jump off the pages of comic books, robots will come to life, and sports and singing stars will be born—all right here in Southern Maryland at this summer’s College of Southern Maryland’s Kids’ and Teen College camps. Kids ages 5 to 17 will arrive on CSM’s La Plata, Leonardtown and Prince Frederick campuses beginning June 21 for eight weeks of adventure and academics through Kids’ and Teen College.
New this year are full-day camp options for 5- to 6-year-olds, building a sustainable solar-powered model home, American Sign Language and circus camps led by a graduate of Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey Circus Clown College.
Robotics, game design and 3-D animation workshops have added sections and levels the past three years. Science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) classes are taught by CSM faculty. Sports, languages and literature, arts and crafts, dance, music and theater are taught by high school and middle school teachers.
Registration is underway for all summer offerings at Kids’ and Teen College. For information, visit www.csmd.edu/KidsCollege.
