SIERRA VISTA — Cochise College’s 2015 Summer Campus program is offering 19 camps for kids throughout June and July, instructed by college faculty, teachers from Fort Huachuca and community professionals.
Summer camps give students in grades 4–12 an opportunity to continue learning even when school is not in session. All camps are Monday-Thursday on the Sierra Vista Campus and cost $100/week.

“We have several new camps this summer, such as choir and music, advanced sewing, creative writing, and poetry,” said Summer Campus coordinator Angela Moreno. “The cost is still the same as it was when we began in 2007. We have a growing number of instructors from the college and community who are excited to offer these opportunities for our kids.”
Other camps offered include metal art sculptures, video game design, robotics, rocketry, rock band, dance and cyber security. Most camps are held in the afternoons during a four-day session, but some are offered in the mornings. Space is limited in each camp.
