Saturday Camps Coming Soon

Get a taste of Summer Camp and sign your child up for one of our Saturday camps! Drop your children off at 9:00, check some items off your to-do list, pick them back up at 1:00, and get ready to hear all about what they learned and created at our Saturday Camp! Keep an eye out for our upcoming dates.

Abigail and Rebecca had a wonderful week at cooking camp! Thank you so much for everything! They are excited to make something from the Hershey bag. They started planning as soon as we got in the car. The banquet was amazing, very impressed! Looking forward to next year!

Each summer we travel from Acworth, GA, staying with family in North Augusta, so that Aiden can attend VeryVera Cooking Camp. This is the camp around which we plan our entire summer. I consider us to be camp connoisseurs as we have participated in many, many camps, but this one is especially valuable. It is especially awesome that the week culminates in a luncheon where each child invites a guest to see and to taste all he/she has learned throughout the week. Aiden has had nothing but good experiences with the staff who are of the highest character and who provide extensive direction and support. I am abundantly thankful for this really special camp and the people who make it possible. We are already looking forward to next summer.

Thanks again! We’ll see you next summer!
