University of West Georgia summer camps for rising kindergarteners and up
UWG has opened registration for a variety of youth summer camps this June and July, for students as young as rising kindergarteners, up to rising 12th graders.
For grades K-2, Wolves Exploration Camp will run daily from 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. From UWG’s description, this camp will have children actively engaged in hands-on projects. Specific themes for each week haven’t been announced.
Students rising to grades 3 to 5 have two options:
- Discovery Camp, which has lots of typical camp activities (crafts, outdoor play, and a gym), plus a touch of academic content about archaeology. Runs from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
- STEM camp, which is programmed in partnership with the Georgia Youth Science and Technology Center. Topics will include geology, esports, LEGO robotics, drones and more. This camp has sessions from 9 a.m. to noon and 1-4 p.m., so you can make it a half-day camp or all day, whichever you prefer.
Students rising to grades 6 through 12 can enroll in the UWG Immersion Center. These sessions are led by UWG faculty and staff, covering such topics as literature, art, film, esports, personal finance and more. Sessions are split into 9 a.m. to noon and 1-4 p.m., so you can choose to attend half-day or all day.
