Looking for a camp over the summer for kids in grades 2-9? At RCC, from June 30 through August 8, RCC Summer Camps will be in session. With different programs that cater to all things kids love, like sports, art, computers, science and performing, there is something that every child can enjoy.
At a rate of $275 per week ($25 off per week if you sign up before June 20), your child will get the opportunity to spend a summer doing their favorite activities, learning team building skills and making new friends that can last a lifetime.
Under the supervision of directors Matt Mattcovich (Sports Academy) and Kelly O’Hanlon (Art Institute, Computers, Performing Arts and Destination Science), your child has a variety of different programs they can choose to enjoy the summer doing. They include the following:
Sports Academy-This is for the kids who just simply love sports. In addition to the 10 sports RCC Summer Camps offer (baseball, tennis, basketball, football, handball, gym sports, soccer, softball, instructional and free swim). This year, Rockland Boulders will be coming to play with the kids. For those children who love the fun and competitiveness of sports, this is the program for them to go with!
Computers-Today, technology is in a continuous state of advancement. This program is for kids who love to keep up with the things a computer can do. In this program, children will learn animation, video game development, website design and even programming. Sessions are always hands on and include a computer (both desktop and mobile will be used). The program runs from 9 am until lunch, and afterwards, the children go to a variety of activities including swimming, music, arts and crafts, etc.
Destination Space-Our newest program caters to children who love science, technology and experimenting. While they are an independent camp not run by RCC, they still have the same hours and age requirements, but are the only program to offer half day programs. At a rate of $275 for a full day per week, the half day prices are $175 per week.
Performing Arts-This is for those who love to perform. Whether it be singing, acting or dancing, the performing arts program will have professional instruction and will even have access to the famous RCC Theater.

This program run in the morning, and after lunch at midday, the campers then will have different activities they can attend like swimming, music, arts and crafts, etc.
