T he COVID-19 pandemic has changed so much about how we are going about our daily lives right now. But we remain hopeful that summer will bring with it a return to normalcy, and that includes the joy, fun and learning to be found at summer camp. Many of our local partners are currently accepting summer camp and program enrollments , though they will be continually monitoring recommendations by the CDC and health officials. Should cancellations occur, several camps have refund policies, and we encourage you to make those inquiries as you register your child. We can’t wait for the warm sunshine and summer fun opportunities to try new things, learn new skills and meet new friends. Find dozens of options to pique the interest of your child in our guide below, featuring everything from STEM and horseback riding to art and cooking.
