In addition to regular summer camps taking place at various MCC locations, we offer unique In Your Neighborhood camps. Taking place at a variety of neighborhood locations throughout the four counties around the Omaha metro area, we bring inclusive educational opportunities to locations convenient for you and your family.

In Your Neighborhood camps are designed for children between ages 5-11 and take place at a variety of neighborhood locations convenient for you and your family. We spend a week at each location, spread throughout the Omaha metro, Sarpy county, Fremont and Blair. These creative and fun programs build curiosity, life skills and academic skills with a wide variety of topics that kids love to explore, from art and science to strategy and outdoor fun. Mix and match topics to build the perfect camp experience!

You are encouraged to Build Your Own Day Camp experience with In Your Neighborhood camps.

  • Choose a location (use the location filter online or see the CFKT mailer for a handy visual). 
  • Camps run for four days at each location. If you miss a camp at one location, check other weeks throughout the summer.
  • Camps are scheduled for families to choose up to three (3) camp experiences at one location.
  • Camps are broken into age segments, so look for the age to select the most appropriate classes for your child.
  • Camps run for 55 minutes each. Children are escorted to their next camp, if attending multiples.
  • Add one, two or three camps to your cart!

ALLERGY FORM

It is the parent/guardian’s responsibility to notify us of any allergies that a student may have. It is important for us to know this information before camp begins. Please note, courses held at the Institute for the Culinary Arts are held in commercial kitchens with allergens present, and while all efforts possible will be made to keep students out of direct contact with allergens, no room can be guaranteed as allergen-free.

ACCOMMODATIONS

If you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation in order to participate in any program or activity, contact Disability Support Services at 531-MCC-3841 as soon as possible in advance of the program for consideration of your accommodation request. It is helpful to receive accommodation requests at least 10 days in advance of a program. With less advance notice, it may be difficult to meet needs of interested members.
