MOHAVE COUNTY – Nearly 200 children enjoyed fun, creative and educational classes during College for Kids this summer at Mohave Community College, and families are encouraged to sign up for next year’s camps.
MCC’s Community Education division organizes the summer camp with a focus on teaching children about the history of Mohave County, STEM, exploring careers like firefighting, paramedic, welding and much more.
College for Kids happens at MCC campuses in southern Mohave County for children ages 8-12. Older children were also able to participate in culinary camps at the Bullhead City campus and esports camps at the Kingman campus.
For the second summer in a row, the MCC Culinary Program offered a camp to show children kitchen safety, how to make breakfast, pizza, a sandwich, Barbeque and other recipes.
Esports campers created their own teams, were provided a hands-on experience and participated in a camp tournament. Participants got to play various games like Smash Bros., Fortnite, Roblox and Rocket League. Children also got to learn about video game design, sportsmanship, careers in esports and much more.
