There is still a lot of summer left. At the Center for Lifelong Learning, we have eight camps available for children.
Starting the week of July 10, we have Hip Hop Camp and Soccer Camp. Pop! Lock! Break! The Hip Hop Camp explores the most popular dance craze in the world. Learn high-energy steps that you can combine with your own freestyle form to create the perfect hip-hop combination. Family and friends will be amazed when you show off your latest moves. No previous dance experience required. Hip Hop Camp is offered Mon-Thu, from 9:00am – 12:00pm, in the Mezzanine of the Center.

The week of July 17 there will be four camps – two Art Explorers, Gross Science, and CSI for Kids.
