The school year is starting to wind down, and parents might be wondering how their kiddos will be spending the summer. The Georgia Sea Turtle Center on Jekyll Island has a great alternative to video games. In addition to their Science Saturdays offered during the majority of the school year, the center also offers summer day camps for kids under 8th grade.
The camps are Monday-Friday, 9:00 a.m. through 2:00 p.m. and includes one trip to Summer Waves Water Park, 25 hours of learning time, a camp t-shirt and optional daily lunch from Larry’s Giant Subs.
