June 2-27, 2025
The University of Nebraska at Kearney is excited to bring curriculum-based summer camps to our community. We invite students entering grades 1-8 to join us on UNK's campus for enrichment camps that are not only fun and engaging, but also educational.
Loper Launch Campers (and their adults) can choose between our academies and our one-week themed workshops. Countdown Hour is also available for those needing an early drop-off option.
Registration is now closed.
One-Week Themed Workshops
Countdown Hour
7:30 - 8:45 AM
Countdown Hour is a great opportunity for families who need an earlier drop-off. Students will be able to read, play games, or complete crafts with kids their age. Our campers enjoy the non-structured, supervised time as they “countdown” to their morning workshop. Drop off anytime between 7:30 and 8:45am that is convenient for your family!
Cost: $10 per week per student ($6 per week per student if qualify for free/reduced lunch)
