I’ve got a couple of LEGO fans who would love the LEGO camp + I love the work that KDO does. What a great list!
These all sound so fun! I wish I would’ve gone to some like this when I was a kid.
This is such a great resource! I’m especially interested in the robotics camp for my stepson. Thanks for the list!
we have terrific visual art experience camps this summer at ART WITH A HEART. Teacher/student ratio is excellent and a fully equipped studio, outstanding/energetic teacher-artists, and creative minded kids make for a swell experience. To whom do I send details? www.artwithaheart.us
I don’t think this seems like a good list…..a google search yields better results. ??
Thanks Joyce for this comment, it’s super helpful.

FYI:
As of June 1, 2020. Carmel Clay Camps said they are not taking campers past 6th grade. Due to their “numbers restrictions”(as stated in an email to me) ☹
Thank you for the update!
