This summer, stop taking your hometown for granted. By attending a local camp, you and your kids can discover another side to East Cobb (and places nearby!). While your kids aren’t cooped up in a classroom, let them savor every flavor the area has to offer. When we are on vacation and let ourselves be tourists, we let our hair down, drive a little slower and stop at interesting sites that we would never notice at home. These summer camps give you the best of the “hidden gems” that have been hiding under your nose. You won’t regret checking out any of them.
