Afternoon Camp Select one from the following:
Money SenseKids are fascinated by the value of money. But most aren't taught the power of saving and investing in school or at home.

Teaching money skills to kids is more challenging in today's high-tech world that includes debit cards, ATM's, direct deposits, automatic deductions, credit cards, on-line bill paying, and more. Let camp help the kids get started.
Skylines: Game-based 3D City DesignThis is a fascinating class that, with computer games, will introduce the thrill and hardships of creating and maintaining a real city. No more messing with paper, scissors and glues. Through simulation, Students will engage in urban planning by controlling your own roads, public services, transportation and more. You're only limited by your imagination, so take control and reach for the sky!
