Every 2023 Forefront Arts camp will culminate in a public performance! Family & friends are invited to join us each Friday for the campers to show off what they've learned!
Enrollment Process: this year families will enroll and pay for camps directly through the parent portal!

New families will need to create an account in the parent portal to enroll in our program.

Counselors in Training Leadership Program: 7th-12th graders are invited to participate in our CIT program this summer! This is a great next step for students who have loved attending our summer camps but are now ready for a new summer challenge! CIT positions are for one week at a time, Monday - Friday, 8 am-3:30 pm (or until the show is completed on Friday afternoon), and they'll select their CIT dates on the camp registration form. They'll participate in daily staff huddles as an active team member, coordinate dropoff & pickup rotations, oversee leading some camp activities such as warmups and drama games, act as a buddy for campers needing some extra love & attention, serve as a stage manager during the Friday performance and overall assist the directors with bringing the camp show to life. The weekly tuition is $250 which includes their staff oversight from our directors, CIT staff shirts, and additional leadership resources & training provided by our team before their CIT week. At the end of the summer we will celebrate all of our CIT leaders with a special outing! Beginning with 2023, all leadership students must complete at least 1 CIT assignment before being offered an Internship the following year. We have 1 or 2 CIT positions available each week.
