PULLMAN – Young athletes hoping to improve their skills – or just looking for fun – will have the chance to participate in a number of sports camps being offered this summer on the WSU Pullman campus. Two music camps are also being scheduled.
June kicks off with the Cougar Kid’s Camp – an eight-week camp specifically designed to integrate physical activity, educational opportunities, and leisure pursuits for children from first through seventh grade. The camp runs from June 15 through the week of August 3.
Each week features a new theme that will inspire the games and activities for that particular week. Camp will run from 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. each day, allowing campers the option of attending for the full day, the morning, or just the afternoon.
The cost varies according by week and participants will receive a discount for early registration. Early registration closes June 10 for Splash into Summer Week and June 17 for Simply Sports Week. For more information please visit www.cougarkids.wsu.edu or call 335-UREC.
