The Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Scottsdale has announced their 2013 summer camp schedule. The local non-profit organization offers quality summer programs in a positive, safe, supervised environment.
Children must be at least six years old and registered for first grade, unless noted. Each child is placed in age appropriate groups and takes part in a variety of fun and educational programs, including: arts & crafts, games room, computer training, social recreation, and various learning opportunities. In addition, children can participate in special events like carnivals, talent shows, dances, picnics, and ice cream socials. Field trips are also available to local attractions like swimming pools, museums, bowling alleys and movie theaters.
Depending on location, children must bring a sack lunch. Space is limited and is taken on a first-come, first-serve basis. For registration forms and details, please contact the branch directly or visit their website.
