Parents looking for fun activities for their kids will have more than 30 Jackson State University summer camp programs to choose from at Summer Fun Expo.
Held at 1 p.m. April 12 at Trustmark Park, the Expo will provide details about the full range of JSU camps, said Shannon Easter, JSU Internal Events Coordinator. There is $5 admission for Braves game and expo.
Every summer, more than 1,700 eager young minds attend one of the various JSU summer camps. From ages 4 to 18, Jackson State offers camps that engage youth in academics, science, athletics, art and other popular programs. There are even camps for adults who want to sharpen their skills over the summer.
They include:
— Academic and art camps for K-12
— Academic and art camps for incoming freshmen/undergraduates
— STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) programs
— Sport-specific camps
— Professional development camps for adults.
Imagine your child taking theatre, dance, choral studies, or learning the legal system at “law camp,” or baseball, volleyball or football. There’s even a weather camp for budding meteorologists.
For young scientists, there are camps on physical science, earth science, and space science. And there are social subjects, such as learning about the civil rights movement. Or learn from the famous Sonic Boom of the South what it takes to be a part of the “Summa Cum Laude of Bands!”
