Summer camps are a great way to enrich your child’s summer vacation.  We have so many incredible camps offered by our member groups we thought we would spend the next week spotlighting each one of them!

Today’s summer camp features the wonderful programs from the Louisville Ballet School.   Learn dance from the best this summer!
