July Summer Camps

The campus is buzzing with activity this month as several of our summer camps get underway. The following three grant-funded camps introduce participants to the College and to potential careers.

The Digital Design Camp, funded by the US Department of Education and hosted by the TRiO Talent Search program, will include 45 middle and high school students. The camp focuses on careers in digital technology and is scheduled for July 18 – 22. Nikita Baxter may be contacted for more information.

The Workforce Development Summer Camp, funded by the J. Marion Sims Foundation, will include approximately 40 participants from YouthBuild and Community Powerhouse in Lancaster County. Participants will explore careers in both credit and non-credit programs. The camp dates are July 11, 13, 14, 18, 20, and 21. Kiwanna Brackett may be contacted for more information.

The Summer Institute & Workshop, funded by the National Science Foundation – National Network of Pulp and Paper Technology Training, will include rising high school freshman through college students. High school and college faculty are invited to participate. Abitibi Bowater will also participate in this important summer workshop. The camp focuses on careers in the Pulp and Paper field and is scheduled for July 21 – 22. John McGill and George Russell may be contacted for more information.

I am very grateful to all who have planned these wonderful summer camps!

Hi! I'll try to visit this page again some other time. Thank you so much for sharing this blog post. I'll be looking forward for your other posts as well. You have such a nice page. Australian Defence Force Cadets often and almost exclusively run their extended camps and courses over school holiday periods, the vast majority of which provide all food and lodging for Cadets over the course of the camp. However, these camps often last only one or two weeks and thus do not fill up the majority of the summer holiday break. This allows the Cadets (who are aged 12-18 years and therefore the majority attend school) to attend the camps whilst still completing normal schooling. Our staff will work with your student’s goals and ability and provide one-on-one instruction in a relaxed environment in hour-long sessions – as many times as you like over the summer.
