The camps are designed for children heading to kindergarten this fall who haven't attended preschool, or kiddos who could use a little extra prep before their first time in a classroom.

K-Camp is a half-day morning program led by licensed teachers who make learning fun through engaging activities that boost literacy and social-emotional skills. Each day, campers receive a free book to take home, and breakfast and lunch are provided to keep those young minds fueled. In 2023, 82% of campers showed growth in literacy skills, and the program served as an early intervention for 48 children needing additional support.

If you grew up in the Wild West of the '60s, '70s, or '80s, summer toys were a lifeline because many of us were locked outside (until the street lights came on). Inside was no place for a kid! Check out these classic summer toys that kept us cool, kept us busy, and always seemed to add a dash of danger.
