Summer begins here! Forsyth Summer Discovery strikes the perfect balance between structure and (age-appropriate!) freedom, offering children age 3 through Grade 6 a largely "unplugged" experience with a neighborhood feel. Different weekly themes allow campers to become engineers, artists, cyclists, filmmakers, performers, climbers, designers, scientists, photographers, explorers, and more!
