Monroe County Community College has announced the FUNdamentals Summer Camps being offered for Summer 2023.
All of the camps will be held on the college’s Main Campus at 1555 S. Raisnville Rd. in Monroe, MI. Most of the camps are half-day or several hours each day for a week-long session. Costs for the camps range from $29 to $99, with the exception being the culinary arts camps, which are $129. Some camps do have clothing or footwear requirements for safety reasons.
Registration is now underway for the more than 30 different camp sessions being offered in a wide array of areas of interest for students at the elementary, middle and high school level.
Campers can select from several levels of cooking, from basic skills geared to elementary age children to an advanced cooking camp for teens.
For those who like to tinker, are technically-oriented or are interested in creating things, the construction technology, CAD/CAM camp or 3D CAD (Solidworks), metrology (the science of measurement), Makerspace and rocket-focused camps might be the answer. New this year, too is a Lego Master Design Camp.
Both the visual and musical arts have camps running this year, including a guitar camp, photography camp and an exploratory camp for aspiring artists. There are several new creative camps being offered this year including drawing, paint and printing, sculpture and 3-D art and digital scrapbooking camps.
Healthcare oriented mini-heroes and firearms safety camps are scheduled along with two other new camps, Library Summer Fun Camp and CyberPatriot Camp. Fitness camps offered this year include basketball, soccer, volleyball and mindful movement.
And, of course, the ever popular VEX robotics camps and teams will be in full operation, featuring the coaches, volunteers and members of this year’s multiple local, regional and state competition winning teams.
