Living in Phoenix means our hot HOT summers need to be filled with busy camp days for our kids. Because we know, if we don’t plan our kids summers, we then become the “camp directors”. We know that finding the perfect summer camps mean fun-filled, and stress-free summers! We are eager to present our 2020 Ultimate Guide to Summer Camps in Phoenix, and we hope it provides you some insight as you make your summer plans!
We need to extend our greatest appreciation to all of our summer camp sponsors who made this guide possible! When you sign your kiddos up for one of the camps listed below, please let them know that North Phoenix Moms Blog sent you their way!
Logic and Leadership Academy
The Logic and Leadership Academy isn’t just about preparing for college, it’s about nurturing the next generation of leaders to be happy and productive wherever they go. After the week-long day course, 85% of parents notice incredible changes in their teens. They have seen students repair family relationships, overcome bad habits, conquer social anxiety, and learn to take accountability for their success in school and beyond.
Leadership Society of Arizona (LSA) is a nonprofit educational organization. The model is based on 25 years of professional development research from ASU (2,000+ projects valued at $6.6B). LSA has worked with over 2,100 students through 60 programs with 20 schools and organizations. Most importantly, 98% of students love the programs and as a result, 75% feel less stressed and 64% feel more confident about their futures.
