Signing up for your favourite summer camp program is
now easier than ever!
RA members and non-members are welcome to register for
Summer Camp programs using the Play RA on-line registration service.
FUTUREKIDS Computer Camps and the RA’s Day Camp have joined forces
to offer some unique opportunities for children. Campers spend either the
morning (9:00 am to 12:00 am) or the afternoon (1:00 pm to 4:00 pm)
learning the latest in computer technology with themes and subjects that
children love. The rest of the time, the campers join in the fun with the
RA Day Camp.
The Computer Camp classes are taught by Ontario certified teachers. In
each class, campers work in teams of two. An open house at the end
of each camp allows the campers to show off their amazing computer
creations to their famillies.
The following programs are available this year at the RA.

What better way to introduce boys and girls to computer science than to

to program their bot to follow a flashlight, detect obstacles, follow a line
and more. Campers will record video of their bot so they can show off
their new programming skills to all their friends and family!

course is user-friendly, exciting and challenging and is perfect for aspiring
game designers or for those who just love to play games and see what is
