Summer begins here, Monday, June 8! Forsyth Summer Discovery provides a balance of structure and age-appropriate freedom, offering children age 3 through Grade 7 a largely “unplugged” experience with a neighborhood feel. One-week sessions with different themes allow campers to become artists, engineers, filmmakers, cyclists, performers, scientists, photographers, explorers, and more! Summer Discovery is a place to play, try, make, be, and do—on the high ropes or obstacle course, in the science lab, on the stage, in the garden, or on the field. Extended Day (Before & After Care) is available; additional fees apply.
Forsyth Summer Discovery’s 2026 camp program runs from Monday, June 8, through Friday, July 31. There is NO CAMP on Friday, June 19, or Friday, July 3. The Camp Day runs from 9 a.m – 3 p.m. ($310 per week) with Before Care from 8 – 9 a.m. ($50 per week) and After Care from 3 – 6 p.m. ($95 per week). Online registration opens to the public on Friday, January 30.
