  • The purpose of this summer camp is to give kids a different experience of what summer camp is all about and a taste of how we operate at The HART Center. We will not be going deep into academics, we believe summer is about having fun, learning useful skills, transformation, facing some challenges and bringing home gifts and resources for the whole family! Part of the school curriculum will include survival skills and primitive games. Our goal is to focus on many of the skills in a short period of time over the summer and to seed interest in larger projects over the school year.

  • We are focused on creating a new system and new experiences for kids and families. We aim to do this through a summer camp as well. This is not summer "school," or a run around and play all day experience. It is focused to learn useful and forgotten skills, not just in education but in life as a whole. The HART Center is all about bringing family and community to the education and mentoring of our children.
