🎉 2026 Summer Youth Camps: Got Skills has officially wrapped up, and WHAT A WEEK IT WAS! 🙌 We had 21 amazing middle schoolers bring the energy, the laughs, and the heart all week long! From thrilling sports competitions 🏅 and hands-on leadership activities to creative arts, team building challenges 🤝, and so much more. These campers pushed their limits, discovered new passions, and made memories that will last a lifetime! 💪

We are already missing every single one of them! 💙

BUT the fun is FAR from over! Tomorrow, our high schoolers arrive for not one, not two, but THREE incredible camps: Discover College and Careers, Discover College and Careers in STEM, and Immerse Into ASL! We. Cannot. WAIT! 🔥

Got Skills campers ended their summer with the BIGGEST bang yet, a trip to Kings Dominion! 🎢🎉 We're taking you along for the ride as you meet the amazing campers who made this summer one for the books! From the thrills to the laughs, these kids brought the energy all day long. This crew knows how to have fun! 🙌✨

Video Description: A camper says, "Ready?" then claps and passes the phone to another camper, who turns to reveal a group of campers waving at the camera. The camera is covered, then uncovered by a shoe to show a group of campers peering down from above. The video spins. A camper picks up the phone as everyone strikes a pose, then covers the camera again. A staff member uncovers it with his hand, revealing campers waving behind him, before covering it once more. A foot pulls back to show another group of campers looking down, saying hi. A camper picks up the phone as cheers erupt in the background.
