2023 Summer Camp: New Frontier

Tidewater Collegiate Academy at Virginia Wesleyan University (TCA) is excited to offer summer camp programs to develop 21st century skills with a specific emphasis on service learning. We help keep your camper's brain engaged while school is out, and help them develop a belief that they can make a difference in their world. All programs are supervised by licensed teachers with expert guests including local artists, scientists, lawyers, professors, and engineers.

Programs are available for campers between the ages of 8-13 years old with leadership opportunities for campers 14-17 years old. Camp is from 9-2 pm on the campus of Virginia Wesleyan University.

All camps are $180.00 unless otherwise noted.
